You can read more about this in my \u201cwhere was German chocolate cake invented?\u201d section below.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>German chocolate cake traditionally uses German\u2019s sweet chocolate, creating a mild and sweet chocolate flavor profile. This chocolate cake with chocolate frosting is an ode to the traditional recipe, but has my own unique spin on it.\u00a0<br \/>My version of has coconut pecan frosting inside and on top of the cake. This coconut pecan frosting makes it quite a sweet cake! If you have a sweet tooth, you\u2019ll love this German chocolate cake.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>This cake also features German chocolate frosting on the sides of the cake. Leave it plain or press chopped pecans around the side of the cake. If you have a nut allergy, you could omit the chopped pecans.<\/li>\n<li>For an extra fancy cake, pipe some of the frosting around the top of the cake, then press whole pecans on top. I do this if I\u2019m making the cake for a special celebration like Father\u2019s Day or my husbands birthday.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Slice of German Chocolate cake on a plate with fork. \" class=\"wp-image-64663\" style=\"width:702px;height:auto\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/triple-layer-german-chocolate-cake\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"German Chocolate Cake (The Best Fan Approved Coconut Pecan Frosting)\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-682x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-768x1153.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-500x750.jpg 500w, https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2.jpg 799w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" src=\"https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-682x1024.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Slice of German Chocolate cake on a plate with fork. \" class=\"wp-image-64663\" style=\"width:702px;height:auto\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/triple-layer-german-chocolate-cake\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"German Chocolate Cake (The Best Fan Approved Coconut Pecan Frosting)\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-682x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-768x1153.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2-500x750.jpg 500w, https:\/\/bakerbynature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/german-chocolate-cake-6.22-1-2.jpg 799w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where was German Chocolate Cake Invented?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Spoiler alert: German chocolate cake was NOT invented in Germany!

This recipe contain a lot of sugar, but makes a huge cake!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flour:<\/strong>\u00a0All-purpose is the only flour I recommend. 1 for 1 GF flour sub may work, but experiment at your own risk.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3OcF7hm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Cocoa Powder<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong>\u00a0Unsweetened natural cocoa works best for this recipe. I don\u2019t suggest using Dutch-process cocoa powder. Sift the cocoa powder before use!\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Baking Powder and Baking Soda:<\/strong>\u00a0Our leaving agents. You need both for the perfect balance!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Salt:<\/strong>\u00a0Balances flavors and sweetness; don\u2019t worry, it won\u2019t make your cake taste salty.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eggs:<\/strong> This recipe uses whole eggs and egg yolks. Make sure eggs and yolks are at room temperature before baking.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coconut Milk:\u00a0<\/strong>Use the thick\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3z1B17a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Thai-style coconut milk<\/a>\u00a0found in a can. Whisk it well before use.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sour Cream:\u00a0<\/strong>Use full-fat and bring to room temperature. If you can\u2019t find sour cream, full-fat plain Greek yogurt is a good substitute.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coconut Oil:<\/strong>\u00a0Using unrefined coconut oil adds a delightful coconut flavor to the chocolate cake. In a pinch, an equal amount of canola oil or vegetable oil will work.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vanilla:\u00a0<\/strong>As always, pure vanilla extract will give you the best flavor. Avoid artificial or imitation vanilla extract.<strong><br \/>Coffee:<\/strong>\u00a0Hot coffee adds great flavor, but an equal amount of freshly boiled water will work. Just make sure to use freshly boiled hot water, or it won\u2019t bloom the cocoa powder properly.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3IyIfTn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Evaporated Milk<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong>\u00a0I do not suggest using regular milk as a substitute! In a pinch, half and half will work. But for best results, stick to the recipe.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coconut:<\/strong>\u00a0You\u2019ll want the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3IArAic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">sweetened shredded coconut variety<\/a>! If you use flaked coconut or finely shredded, it\u2019ll dramatically change the texture of the coconut pecan frosting.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pecans:<\/strong>\u00a0Nuts easily go stale or worse\u2026 rancid, so make sure your nuts are fresh before use. You\u2019ll want to have enough chopped pecans to make the frosting, and decorate the cake.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chocolate:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3Rws4Kj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">German\u2019s sweet chocolate<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3z0LtMa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">unsweetened chocolate<\/a>\u00a0give our frosting rich chocolate flavor, without making it overwhelmingly sweet. Make sure you cool the melted chocolate until it\u2019s tepid!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong>\u00a0Unsalted butter works best, but salted will work in a pinch. Soften it to room temperature before using! But don\u2019t use melted butter.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Confectioners\u2019 sugar:<\/strong>\u00a0Aka powdered sugar.
