Prepare the praline topping: In a small bowl, toss coconut, brown sugar and nuts with melted butter. At the end of the baking time, remove the layers from the oven. Spoon the praline mixture onto the surface of one layer; return to the oven to bake for 10 minutes longer. Let the second layer cool slightly in pan and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. 4. Remove praline layer from oven. Cool slighly. Place a piece of foil about 12 inches square on the wire rack. Carefully transfer to foil on the rack to cool completely. If praline mixture falls off cake, sprinkle back on.
