Bars:

1 white or yellow cake mix
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 egg

Filling:

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
1 can (8 oz) crushed pineapple, drained
1-1 1/2 coconut

Glaze:

3/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
3-4 teaspoons milk


Preheat oven to 350*. With a spoon, mix cake mix, butter, and egg together. Press into a lightly greased 9x13 pan.

Beat cream cheese, sugar, milk, vanilla, and egg together in a separate bowl until smooth. Stir in well-drained pineapple. Spread evenly over dough. Sprinkle coconut over top. Bake 25-30 minutes or until coconut is light golden brown. Cool completely.

Mix powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk together in a small bowl. Drizzle glaze evenly over cooled dessert. Refrigerate at least 2 hours and cut into bars. Store in refrigerator.
