How to Make Tornado Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Evenly sprinkle 1 cup of chopped pecans and ½ cup of shredded coconut into the prepared pan.
- Prepare your favorite marble cake mix according to package directions.
- Gently pour the prepared cake batter over the pecans and coconut in the pan.
- In a separate bowl, cream together ½ cup (1 stick) softened butter, 4 ounces of softened cream cheese, and 2 cups of powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cake batter, swirling gently with a knife or toothpick for a marbled effect.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before serving.
- Serve chilled with your favorite whipped topping or a dusting of powdered sugar.
