My mom's favorite cake is a German Chocolate Cake. After seeing a recipe for coconut icing on Trisha Yearwood's new cooking show I decided to make it for a German Chocolate Cake. I used a boxed cake mix because it is just way easier and I'm all about easy.

Here is what you will need:
1 cup evaporated milk
1 cup sugar (not pictured)
4 egg yolks
1 stick of butter
10 oz coconut (I used a little less)
1 1/2 cups nuts (finely chopped)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup evaporated milk
1 cup sugar (not pictured)
4 egg yolks
1 stick of butter
10 oz coconut (I used a little less)
1 1/2 cups nuts (finely chopped)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1. Combine evaporated milk, sugar and egg yolks in a saucepan
2. Stir with whisk until yolks are fully incorporated
3. Add butter, melt, and bring to a simmer
4. Cook until mixture thickens (12-15 minutes), stiring constantly
5. Add coconut, nuts, and vanilla
6. Spread on cake and enjoy
This is by far my favorite German Chocolate cake I've ever had...WONDERFUL!

It really was just the best icing. I'm not a huge fan of German Chocolate but it is my mom's favorite and since she is watching my son I had to treat her!
