German chocolate cake


German chocolate cake



Ingredients:


Evaporated Milk, one 12 ounce can
Egg Yolks, 5
White Sugar, 1 1/2 cups
Butter, 3/4 cup
Pecan Pieces, 1 1/2 to 2 cups
Shredded Sweetened Coconut, 1 1/2 to 2 cups

Directions:


-Separate the eggs. Discard the whites or save them for another use.
-Combine the evaporated milk, yolks and sugar in a heavy medium-size saucepan. Stir in the sugar and whisk it together until well-blended.
-Add the butter.
-Heat over medium heat, stirring almost continually, until the mixture comes to a slow boil. Continue cooking until it starts to thicken. Remove from heat and cool for 15 to 20 minutes.
-Add pecans.
-Add coconut.
-Stir it all together, adding more coconut or pecans as needed until it’s nice and thick.
-Dump about half of it onto the first layer of the cake and spread it to the edges. The foil strips under the edges of the cake keep the plate clean.
-Add the second cake layer and press it down very gently.
-Spread the remaining frosting over the top layer. It’s impossible to do the sides and it doesn’t matter. That’s why this cake is so easy to put together!
-Remove the foil and serve. It’s good anytime but it’s even better if it’s still slightly warm.
