This is very good with a nice flavor combination. I added sliced almonds to the topping for added crunch. Later this week I am going to use the leftover cake to make a tropical trifle for dessert, layering with coconut pudding and rum.

WOW!! This is Fabtastic! I only have 8" pans so I baked this in a cake pan. To go with a full tropical taste I added some chopped macadamias. Great recipe.
