I got this recipe from a neighbor and is so incredible I have to share it.
Oatmeal Cake
Combine 1 1/4 cup boiling water and 1 cup quick oats and let stand 20 minutes.
Cream together 1/2 cup shortening, 1 cup brown sugar, 1 cup granulated sugar and 2 eggs. Add oat mixture, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1 1/2 cup flour, 1tsp. soda, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1tsp. vanilla and 1 tsp baking powder and mix until combined. Spread into a greased 9 x 13 pan and bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes.
Just before you take the cake out of the oven, combine 1/3 cup softened butter, 1 1/2 cup brown sugar, 2 cups coconut (or 1 1/2 cups coconut and 1/2 cup chopped pecans), and 1/2 cup evaporated milk. Spread this mixture on the hot cake and put it under the broiler until the topping is bubbling and carmel colored, mine took about 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
