Oh shoot, I don't know just that it had coconut/chocolate/walnut layer in the middle. the cake was chocolate. Knew it was a long shot.

Was this a bundt cake for which you spooned a gooey layer of coconut/walnut/chocolate on top of about 1/3 of the batter and then filled the pan with the rest of the batter?

Filled Bundt cakes were very popular in the 80's. The recipe here:

should get you started. Your tags don't show up in your post, so I didn't realize at first that you were not laking about a layer cake. HTH!

Years ago I made this cake on a regular basis and loved it. I have searched the internet and have not been able to find the recipe! Sound familiar to anyone?
Welcome to DC.Josie
I've got one that's a scratch made deep chocolate cake with a filling of cream cheese, coconut, and chocolate chips but I don't remember whether it had nuts or not, haven't made it in years. I can try to find it if that's the one you are looking for. Loved that cake but it makes so much and it's just me and Craig now.

Well, I'm just going to have to make this cake again now that I've been reminded of it. Maybe I'll try to hold out until we go see our granddaughters and take half of it to them and their parents. LOL. The nuts are in the cake batter, which is what threw me. Hope this is it.
This recipe is from a 1974 Pillsbury cake book.
