Spray oil in a 9 x 13 cake pan or butter the bottom. Spread the nuts and coconut over the pan. Mix cake as directed on box, pour over the pan evenly. Soften the cream cheese and butter in microwave (but do not melt) and beat together well. Beat in the powdered sugar gradually. This “icing” can be either fluffy or runny, either is OK.
