For an extra layer of flavor, toast the pecans and coconut lightly before adding them to the topping. Ensure the cake is still hot when you pour the topping over it. This helps the sauce absorb properly. Serve warm or at room temperature with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an even more indulgent treat.
