| I'm looking for a tried and true recipe for coconut pecan frosting that you would put on a German chocolate cake. Anyone have one they'd like to share?
Thanks,

| Sure Janet. Check out the Recipezaar link below. Although I didn't post the original recipe, I took the picture, since we make this cake at least twice a year. |

| Here's the original cake and frosting recipe directly from the Baker's German Sweet Chocolate bar wrapper: BAKER’S ORIGINAL GERMAN SWEET CHOCOLATE CAKE 1 pkg. (4 oz.) Baker's German sweet chocolate Melt chocolate in water, cool. Cream butter and sugar. Beat in egg yolks. Stir in vanilla and chocolate. Mix flour, soda, and salt. Beat in flour mixture, alternately with buttermilk. Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold into batter. Pour batter into three 9-inch layer pans, lined on bottoms with waxed paper. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 30 minutes or until cake springs bake when lightly pressed in center. Cool 15 minutes; remove and cool on rack. Frost cake. COCONUT-PECAN FROSTING Combine 1-1/2 cups (12 fl. oz.) evaporated milk, 1-1/2 cups sugar, 4 slightly beaten egg yolks, 3/4 cup butter or margarine and 1-1/2 tsp. vanilla in saucepan.
