1 (18 1/4 ounce) package white cake mix

1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
1 (14 ounce) can coconut cream
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

In a bowl: combine cake mix, eggs, oil, water, & extract then beat for about 2 minutes and pour into pans. Bake for half an hour (until baked through).
