I made the cake itself, not the frosting... I don't dig sour cream so much. Sorry! I instead used it with this: http://www.food.com/recipe/fluffy-white-frosting-128329<br/><br/>But the cake was so good... and easy! I like easy! I brought it into the office and everyone raved about it. THEY ATE THE WHOLE THING! Good thing I got to try some... the cake does live up to its name! And how I love me some creamicles!<br/><br/><br/>Definitely a keeper. Did I mention I love easy?<br/><br/>The end result

This was refreshingly delicious. Great flavors. Very moist. My family devoured it. I omitted the coconut. I am only giving it 4 stars because it did not go together easily and the frosting was a bit thin even with extra cool whip. The final product was not a pretty picture. (But it was yummy!) I think I will play around with this one a bit. Next time I make it (and I will) I think I will only make it a double layer, that will eliminate a lot of the mess.
