Very good recipe. Only difference is that I found my hidden bottle of rum had been emptied and the kids had filled it with water and coke! I substituted cognac, and it basically tasted the same as if I had used rum.

This cake is moist and delicious. I topped it with a homemade coconut cream cheese frosting, (1 8 oz pkg cream cheese, 1 stick butter, 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 2 tsp coconut extract.) Then I topped it with flaked coconut and refrigerated it for 2 hours to firm up the frosting. Everybody at my office party loved it and I recevied no less than 6 requests for the recipe.
