Ingredients

(NOTE: since I can no longer find applesauce cake mixes, I would suggest you try a yellow, butter or banana cake mix and add ½ teaspoon cinnamon and use applesauce instead of water when preparing the batter…I tried using spice cake mix, but it was too spicy for me)

1 box applesauce cake mix

¾ cup water (or applesauce if you are using something other than applesauce cake mix)

⅓ cup vegetable oil

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoons butter, melted

¼ cup brown sugar

½ teaspoon cinnamon

⅓ cup chopped pecans

½ cup coconut

Glaze (optional):

½ cup powdered sugar

¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

3 to 4 tablespoons milk

Directions

Mix cake mix, water, oil and vanilla together; reserve 1/3 cup for topping. Pour remaining batter into a greased 9x13 pan.

Mix reserved cake batter with butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until crumbly.

Add nuts and coconut; the topping is quite moist, so it's difficult to sprinkle it over the batter. I just drop it by spoonfuls and then gently spread it a bit with fork tines - works best for me.

Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes.

While it’s baking, prepare the glaze by beating ingredients together, adding milk to thin it enough to drizzle over coffeecake.

Remove coffeecake from oven and drizzle with glaze immediately - the heat from the coffeecake will melt the glaze and allow it to soak into it, creating a deliciouisly gooey topping.

NOTE: the glaze is optional - the coffeecake is good with OR without it, so just go with your preference.
