Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat oven to 350º. Line cupcake pans with paper liners.Mix the cake mix, buttermilk, oil, eggs and vanilla in a large mixing bowl on low speed for one minute until combined. Beat at medium speed for two minutes more. Spoon cupcake batter into paper liners until 1/2 to 2/3 full.

Remove from oven and cool for 5 minutes. Remove from pans and cool on a wire rack before frosting.Can also be baked in two 9 inch round pans for 30 – 35 minutes, or 13 x 9 baking dish for 38 – 42 minute.Combined butter, sugar, evaporated milk and eggs in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for about 12 minutes or until thickened. Add vanilla, coconut and almonds. Cool to room temperature before frosting cake.
