In searching for the wafer recipe, I found this one which is a little more work, but worth it. It is from the side of a Pillsbury Moist Supreme yellow cake mix.

Heat oven to 350. Grease 9x13 pan. In medium saucepan combine pudding mix and 1-¾ cup milk. Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.

Remove from heat. Cool.

Meanwhile in large bowl, combine cake mix, ½ cup margarine, half and half and almond extract at low speed until moistened. Reserve 1 cup mixture for topping. Spread remaining mixture in prepared pan. Bake at 350 for 8 minutes.

Spoon and spread pudding gently over base. Add coconut to 1cup reserved mixture, spoon teaspoonfuls evenly over pudding. Sprinkle with almonds.

Bake an additional 20 to 30 minutes or until golden brown and coconut mixture is firm to touch.

In small bowl, combine all glaze ingredients adding enough milk for desired glaze consistency; blend until smooth. Drizzle over warm bars. Cool completely. Cut into bars. Store in refrigerator.
