Paula Deen's Volcano Cake

This CAKE is WONDERFUL!!! I mean it...it is pretty simple too- worth it once you take a bite!!

1 cup of shredded coconut
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
1 package of German Chocolate Cake mix (and all ingredients to mix)
10 bite size Almond Joy candy bars- chopped
1- 8 ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup (1 stick) Butter at room temperature
2 cups of confectioners sugar (powdered sugar)

Pre-heat oven to 350*
Spray 13x9x2 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray

Mix coconut and nuts and spread them evenly in pan. Prepare cake mix as directed on the box. Stir in the chopped candy bars. Pour the batter over the coconut & nuts. Combine the cream cheese, butter, and sugar. Randomly drop tablespoons of this on top of the batter; do not spread them. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until sides of cake pull away from the pan.

This cake is wonderful to serve warm or cool with a dollop of whipped cream.
