1 package yellow cake mix
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
3 eggs
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13-inch pan and set aside. Combine cake mix, melted butter and one egg with an electric mixer. Press the mixture into the bottom, and partially up the sides of the prepared baking pan. In the same mixing bowl, whip the cream cheese until fluffy, about 30 seconds. Add the remaining 2 eggs and vanilla. Mix until smooth. Add sifted powdered sugar and mix until smooth and combined. Fold in coconut. Pour mixture into pan, on top of cake batter mixture. Smooth with a spatula and sprinkle with pecans. Bake approximately 50 minutes, or until the edges are browned and center is firm to the touch. Cool completely before cutting and serving. Will keep best stored in the refrigerator.
