Delicious cake!!! I didn't find it overly sweet as the frosting was very thin. I did find it a little oily. Next time I will reduce the butter a little. Thanks for the recipe!

Followed the recipe step by step and it turned out delectable! Maybe a bit less butter next time for the topping, but otherwise, extremely delicious, everyone enjoyed it, the dish was completely cleaned off!!

cake turned out perfectly. however, just as another reviewer stated, even though pan was well greased it still stuck... other than that it was perfect. For the icing i used: 4T melted butter, 2T cream, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup shredded coconut(since that's all i had), 3/4 cup chocolate chips. This was enough to cover the top, which was plenty of sweetness for this cake. ****UPDATE 4/11/12, changed 4 stars to "5"! Made this cake again today as a B-Day cake, turned out perfectly (this time I greased & floured the pan which helped alot). this is a consistant cake, no surprises, so it's a cake you can count on and so quick & easy to make. This time I covered it in melted chocolate (1 cup chocolate chips, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 4 Tbl melted butter, 2 Tbl heated milk); then I put fresh strawberries cut in half to cover the whole cake (the chocolate kept the strawberries in place perfectly). Please take a look at the photo I posted.

Great recipe. I cut the coconut for the topping in half and replace with golden raisins.

I made this cake for my family for a Sunday dinner. It worked wonderfully. The cake itself was mild enough to compliment the icing!!!

This is just like my Monther's recipe and I love this cake! I agree about cutting the butter/sugar in the frosting. Mom's recipe only called for 1/2 cup brown sugar and 3 TBL of butter and it came out great.

Ouch! Couldn't wait to try this and sure enough ... burnt my tounge (grin). Absolutely wonderful - I can so see this will some grilled or glazed pineapple on top. Yes, the topping *is* sweet, but there's so little (I barely had enough to spread around the cake) that you aren't overwhelmed by it. I, too, decreased butter down to 6T and poked holes in cake so topping could melt down. Yum! Oops - just realized a) I did use coconut milk in place of milk and b) completely forgot to add the cream to frosting mixture. Still tastes darn good. UPDATE: We served this with pineapple, strawberries and whipped cream and it was simply to die for. Lovely.
