Double Butterscotch Coconut Cake

I got this recipe for coconut cake from a co-worker years ago, then I changed it up a bit by adding a family favorite: butterscotch. It's super easy to throw together and it makes a perfect accompaniment to coffee or tea. —Marina Castle Kelley, Canyon Country, California

    Amazing Cake. Super moist and rich butterscotch flavor. The glaze gives it a sweet finish but not over sweet like thick icing. Very easy to make. I made mine in a regular 13x9 pan. Turned out great.
