Mountain Dew Cake

(Courtesy of Sara Walker)

Ingredients:
1 box of Duncan Hines orange cake mix
1 c. Crisco oil
4 eggs
1 box coconut cream pie filling (not instant)
1 can chilled Mountain Dew
1 large can crushed pineapple
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 stick butter
1 can coconut
3 Tbsp. cornstarch

Directions:
Pour together first 5 ingredients into a mixing bowl at once and beat for 5 minuetes.  Pour into 3 cake pans.  Bake the 3 layers at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.  Mix together pineapple, sugar, butter, coconut and cornstarch in a saucepan.  Cook on medium heat until mixture thickens.  Spread over cake layers. 

Note~  I also have run into a few recipes that used lemon cake mix.  I usually dont buy coconut but I am unsure if everyone is able to buy 1 can of coconut, so I have also seen recipes that call for 1 c. coconut.
