- Make a two-layer cake according to box directions. Cool.
- In heavy, medium-size saucepan add mango nectar with approx. 2 teaspoons cornstarch . Cook on med.-low heat, stirring constantly (with a whip) until thickened. Consistency should be similar to pancake syrup. If not thick enough, add 1 teasp. cornstarch to 1/4 cup cold water & quickly whip into saucepan mixture until thickened. Let cool to lukewarm. Peel & slice mangoes into large strips & arrange 1/2 on bottom layer of cake. Spoon approx. 5 Tablespoons of the thickened mango nectar sauce over mango slices. Don't spread sauce all the way to edges of cake; leave about 1/2 inch around perimeter. Place second layer on top of first layer. Top with other half of mango slices & approx. 5 more Tablesps. mango nectar sauce. Spread sauce evenly over top only.Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar to desired sweetness. It should be quite stiff. Frost sides of cake with whipped cream. Chill for 30 minutes. In small frying pan, melt butter slowly & add the flaked coconut. Cook over medium-low heat; stirring constantly with fork, until coconut is toasted a light golden brown. Remove toasted coconut immediately to a plate. Seperate & loosen toasted coconut as it cools.
