Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings

1 (15.25 ounce) package white cake mix
1 cup water
3 eggs
⅓ cup vegetable oil
½ teaspoon coconut extract
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened cream of coconut
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 cup flaked coconut

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
Combine cake mix, water, eggs, oil, and coconut extract in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer on low speed until moistened. Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine coconut cream and sweetened condensed milk in a medium bowl; stir until smooth.
Poke holes in warm cake in even rows using a large fork or chopsticks. Pour milk mixture over cake and let it soak in. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until frothy. Add sugar gradually, continuing to beat until soft peaks form; spread over cooled cake. Sprinkle top with flaked coconut.

Jerk Chicken Wings

These jerk chicken wings are so flavorful, different, and delicious that I may have eaten my last Buffalo wing. Okay, I didn't mean that, but these are amazing and have the perfect balance of sweet, sour, salty, and spicy. I'm usually pretty casual about you changing my recipes, but I insist you not change any of the key ingredients, which are every one of them.

Hoppin’ John

Hoppin' John is a hearty dish made by slowly simmering black-eyed peas with pork and vegetables, thought to bring luck and prosperity for the upcoming year. Our version has been simplified to use frozen black eyed peas.

Sweet and Sour Cabbage Soup

This hearty sweet and sour cabbage soup is my version of an old favorite Ashkenazi Jewish recipe. I make a stock first, then make the soup. This allows for de-fatting the soup, but you need to make this on two days, so time accordingly. Using savoy cabbage gives the soup superlative texture and flavor.

Candy Apple Salad

My grandmother gave me this recipe earlier today. I am not crazy about Apples, but loved this salad. I told my husband to hurry up and eat it before I eat too much. My grandmother told me it is like the candy apples at a fair, which I also am not crazy about, but this was the best salad ever! Hope you all enjoy.

Ugly Duckling Cake

This ugly ducking cake made with yellow cake mix, canned fruit cocktail, coconut, and nuts may look a bit ugly, but it tastes great. Top with whipped topping.
