Have made this twice, the first time for a church picnic. I followed other reviews cutting the sugar back to 3 cups and then added a layer of canned pecan/coconut icing between the cake and cream cheese topping. People are still taking about it and asking for the recipe! The second time tried something different. Since I didn’t have the icing, followed other reviewers again and added chopped pecans to the cake mixture and between the cake and topping (added a 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla to the topping). Served with cherry pie filling over the top, it was absolutely the best!

My 7 year old daughter is obsessed with trying differant cake recipies. We found this one and everyone loved it!! I will say this, the cake layer is rather stiff, and was very hard for her to spread in the cake pan. I took over for her, so this is definately not really a kid friendly recipe to make, but is still very good!

I used LEMON CAKE MIX - added chopped PECANS to the cake mixture, and even added some to the top of the cake mixture (we like pecans). I then put a thin layer of sweetened COCONUT on top of the chopped pecans, then the cream cheese layer. To the cream cheese mixture I used TWO PKGS of cream cheese (to make it more cream cheesey and less sweet) less powder sugar probably 2 1/2 cups (since the coconut was sweet) AND I added ALMOND extract (2 TBLBS) to the cream cheese mixture. Let me tell you - it was GOOD !!!!! My daughter (who mostly likes chocolate) LOVED IT!!!! Will DEFINITELY MAKE THIS ONE AGAIN! THANK YOU !

This cake has been used by my family since before I can remember, the only difference is that we only use 2 cups of sugar or 1 box. This is the reason why everyone thought it was too sweet. And our recipe calls for only 1 egg in the cream cheese part, but I tried it with 2 and it tasted the same but was much easier to spread on the 1st layer. This is a family tradition during Thanksgiving and Christmas!

Alone this is too sweet...but served with fruit (we used raspberries and blueberries) it is perfect. The raspberries were the favorite because of the tartness mixed with the sweet cake.

I first had this cake at a shower. Everyone was wanting the recipe. I have taken this to many events and it has been a BIG hit. I add chopped pecans with the cake mix and then spread it in the pan. A nice crunchy surprise in the crust!!!

Great cake/bar. I would definately make this again. It tastes like a great yellow cake covered in cheesecake. It was really easy also. You can't go wrong on something easy and great tasting!

I didn't like it but my husband did and so did the people at the office. It really is not a cake, it is more like a cookie bar or brownie. It is very,very sweet and my opinion was if I was going to eat the calories and the carbs, it would be on something else not this. Nothing that made you go "Wow".

It is sweet, but very good. I found that using less sugar helps quite a bit. I change it up a little every time I make it.

Obviously not the healthiest dessert around, I scaled down the confectioners sugar to 3 cups, and it still was EXTREMELY SWEET! Make sure you have a nice cold cup of milk on-hand to wash this down with! My sister is the only one that gave this cake rave reviews, and she has a major sweet-tooth! Everybody else said it was just way too sweet.

i like to play around w/ my food. my bf won't eat any cake that dont have a chocolate icing since u know this cake will be way to sweet w/ icing ,so change a little bit of the recipe. i use Pillsbury Butter cake mix, 1 c water, 1/4 c butter, 1(8 oz) cream cheese, 3 eggs. that's it no sugar add . it might sound weird but after u put chocolate icing on it, it was perfect. u might put some sugar on it if u like sweet cake as u prefer. For me i think it's work. Any way , the cake was a highlight of the night. i hope this help
