For a richer flavor, use coconut extract in the cake batter. Toast the coconut flakes for a more intense coconut flavor and a bit of crunch. If you don't have piña colada mix, you can substitute it with a mixture of pineapple juice and coconut cream. Store leftover cake in the refrigerator to maintain its moisture and prevent the whipped topping from melting. Consider adding a layer of crushed pineapple between the cake and whipped topping for an extra burst of tropical flavor.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and egg whites. Beat with an electric mixer until well combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. (5 minutes)
03
StepBake in the preheated oven for 23-28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (23-28 minutes)
04
StepRemove the cake from the oven and immediately poke holes all over the surface using a fork or wooden skewer. (2 minutes)
05
StepPour the piña colada mix evenly over the cake, allowing it to soak into the holes. Then, pour the sweetened condensed milk over the cake, ensuring it seeps into the holes as well. (3 minutes)
06
StepLet the cake cool completely in the pan. This may take at least 2 hours, or you can refrigerate it to speed up the process. (120 minutes)
07
StepOnce the cake is completely cool, spread the thawed whipped topping evenly over the surface. Sprinkle the sweetened flaked coconut over the whipped topping. (5 minutes)
08
StepServe immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with pineapple wedges or maraschino cherries for an extra touch of elegance. (5 minutes)
