I’ve learned to keep copies of the recipe on hand when I serve this moist and satisfying coffee cake. It has a nice level of coconut flavor from the pudding mix. —Beth Tropeano, Charlotte, North Carolina

I like the idea of the recipe, but the yellow cake mix was too sweet for me and others (and I love sweet). Might try again with a different starting base.
