- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup pecans, chopped

Instructions
Ensure your oven is fully preheated before you begin baking. A consistent temperature is essential for the perfect cake.
Mix all the ingredients as directed. Focus on achieving a uniform blend, avoiding any clumps. Texture is key in every layer of your cake!
Keep a close watch on the baking time. Remember that every oven is different; it’s best to start checking a little early!
Stir continuously when cooking this mixture to prevent burning. This is a labor of love that will reward you with delightful flavor.
You can make as many holes as you like, ensuring every slice will be bursting with your delicious topping.
Make sure to carefully spread the topping; let it flow into the holes while keeping some texture on the surface.
Feel free to get creative with your frosting design! Make it as fancy or as rustic as you prefer.
