4 small pippin apples, peeled, cored, thinly sliced
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 9x13-inch baking dish. Combine cake mix and coconut in large bowl. Add butter and cut in, using fingers or pastry blender, until mixture is crumbly. Press mixture onto bottom and 1 inch up sides of prepared baking dish. Bake until edges of crust are golden brown, about 10 minutes.
