With scissors, snip stems off stewed figs. Place figs in mixing bowl
and beat hard until whirled into small bits. Add contents from spice
cake mix, plus juice from figs. Beat for 2 minutes. Add eggs and beat
1 minute. Add 2 Tbsps. water and beat at low speed for 1 more minute.
Place in two well-buttered 9-inch layer pans. Bake in moderate oven
(350 degrees F.) for about 25 minutes. Cool slightly. Frost with
favorite vanilla-flavored Seven-Minute Frosting, with lots of coconut
sprinkled on frosting, between layers and on top.
