- Prepare cake batter according to package directions; set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs; beat on low speed, just until combined.

- Bake at 325F for 70-75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour.
- FROSTING: Combine sugar, milk, butter, and egg yolks in a heavy saucepan. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until thickened.
- Remove from heat, stir in vanilla and fold in coconut and pecans. Cool until frosting reaches spreading consistency. Frost cooled cake.
- Refrigerate leftovers.
