Upgraded German Chocolate Cake
German chocolate cake, traditionally made with sweet baking chocolate, is known to be unapologetically decadent and indulgent. It’s pretty sweet by itself, but when paired with coconut pecan filling AND chocolate frosting, it makes my teeth hurt. And that says a lot considering I have a mouthful of sweet teeth!!
My variation is a little upgrade. It’s also unapologetically decadent and indulgent, but it starts with my favorite super-moist deeper and darker chocolate cake. We’ll use a coconut pecan filling enhanced with toasted pecans and top her off with chocolate buttercream, coconut, and more toasted pecans.
So don’t worry, there’s still an opportunity for our teeth to ache. 😉
This has been a highly requested cake recipe, so I’m thrilled to finally share it. And just in case you missed March’s Baking Challenge, I decorated my German chocolate cake naked style. I love seeing that coconut pecan filling peeking out!
