Upside Down German Chocolate Cake


Not my picture but it looked very similar to this. 



German cake mix, prepared according to box directions
1 cup coconut
2 cups chopped pecans
1 cup melted butter
1 pound powdered sugar
8 ounces cream cheese

Preheat oven to 340 degrees. Make cake mix according to box directions. Set aside. Grease a 9x13 pan and sprinkle the bottom of pan with nuts and coconut. Pour cake mix into pan. In a small bowl combine melted butter, powdered sugar and cream cheese until well combined. Drop by spoonfuls all over the cake batter. Using a butter knife, gently swirl the cream cheese mixture into the cake mixture....don't over swirl. Bake for 1 hour, and don't over bake! Serve with vanilla ice cream. YUM!

FYI This was a super messy recipe with lots of dishes. It was so delicious though! WOW! 
Also, I actually made 2 small pans one with coconut and one without because some of the fam doesn't like cocunut but that one worked out just fine as well.
