Ring of Coconut Fudge Cake

I used this recipe 25 years ago when it first came out. This has got to be one of the BEST recipes ever, when using the filling that goes along with this recipe. There was never a bite left on any plate when served to company or at a party. The fudge cake batter is nice and fudgy, keeping it moist and the filling is perfect;not too sweet or heavy or dense.
