Instructions
For cake:
-
In a large bowl, stir together cake mix, instant pudding mix, eggs, sour cream, oil, chocolate chips, pecans, and coconut. Batter will be thick!
-
Spray a large tube pan or bundt pan with non-stick spray.
-
Spread batter evenly into prepared pan.
-
Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
-
Remove pan to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes, then invert the cake onto the wire rack to cool completely.
For coconut-pecan frosting:
-
In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, evaporated milk, butter, and eggs.
-
Stirring constantly, bring the mixture to a boil. Do not walk away from it – it will heat and cook quickly, and you don’t want to scramble the eggs!
-
Once it comes to a boil and thickens, remove from heat, and stir in the coconut, pecans, and vanilla.
-
Cool to room temperature.
-
Spread on top of the cooled bundt cake.
For topping:
-
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, heavy cream, and butter.
-
Microwave on high at 30-second intervals until chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
-
Drizzle over bundt cake.
-
Sprinkle the toasted coconut over the ganache.
-
Allow 10-15 minutes for topping to set. Cut and serve.
