German Chocolate Upside Down Cake

This cake must be made in a tall cake pan - 9" x 13" x 2" (or more) - or you will have a mess in your oven. Don't use a Pyrex dish - it's not tall enough.

In the greased pan layer:

2 c. coconut
1 c. toasted chopped pecans

Mix a German Choc. cake mix according to directions and pour over the above.

Beat together:

1 lb. box powdered sugar
1 8 oz. cream cheese
2 sticks melted butter.

Spoon above over top of cake. Bake at 350 for about 50-60 minutes.

Baked Olives

4 c. mixed olives drained (kalamata, green, ripe, etc.)
6 cloves crushed garlic
1/2 t. crushed red pepper flakes
2 T. olive oil

Make a double thick foil square. Place drained olives in center of the square.

Top with other ingredients. Cover with another square of foil and seal edges.

Bake 30 min. at 350.
