Someone brought this cake down to the office yesterday for the office staff to share. All I can say is OH. MY. GOD!! This cake is soooooooo good. A luscious, velvety chocolate cake, with creamy coconut and walnut filling and finished off with a thick fudge-y frosting. Simply to die for! I brought home a piece for Brian to try, because I know how much he adores chocolate and coconut together. It took all of my willpower for that slice of precious cake to make it home!!
This is not my recipe. I can't lay claim to it in any way. And you eat at your own risk...I am not responsible if you take a bite, then suddenly snap to attention an hour later only to discover you have eaten the entire cake!! And when you make this recipe remember....calories be damned! :)

I made this cake tonight and it is 'to-die-for'. Yum !!! Thanks for sharing... Tricia's Mom
This cake is great! I left off the chocolate frosting, as it was rich enough, but yeah, I think the whole thing will disappear today!
Thanks for sharing!
