Almond Joy Cake

1 chocolate cake mix made according to package directions (Swiss chocolate is good, can use milk instead of water)

First icing:
1 cup sugar
1 cup evaporated milk
24 large marshmallows (or 2 1/2 cups miniature)
1 7-oz package of coconut

Mix sugar, milk and marshmallows in a medium sauce pan and
bring to a boil. Add coconut and pour over cake while cake
is still hot.

Second icing:
1 stick margarine
12 oz package semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup nuts (We use pecans because we have them. Almonds
would be ok. Sometimes I toast the nuts by putting them on
a cookie sheet in the oven when I'm cooking the cake. It
takes about 10 minutes. They should be stirred once or
twice.)

Melt margarine and chips. Add nuts and spread on cake.
