How to Make Coconut Coffee Liqueur Cake

  1. Prepare your favorite boxed cake mix according to package directions.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of instant coffee granules to the cake batter and mix thoroughly until well combined.
  3. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. Pour the batter evenly into both pans.
  4. Bake according to the cake mix package directions.
  5. Once baked, let the cakes cool completely in the pans before inverting them onto a wire rack.
  6. Carefully use a long serrated knife to split each cake layer horizontally, creating four even layers.
  7. Drizzle 1/4 cup of Tia Maria liqueur evenly over the cake layers. Set aside to allow the liqueur to absorb slightly.
  8. Prepare vanilla pudding according to package instructions.
  9. Spread 1/3 of the prepared pudding between each cake layer as you assemble the cake.
  10. Whip 1 cup of heavy cream with 1/4 cup powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
  11. Frost the top and sides of the assembled cake with the whipped cream.
  12. Sprinkle generously with toasted coconut flakes.
