On this Three Kitchens Podcast episode we're trying a traditional American cake recipe, German's Chocolate Cake. Turns out, it's not German at all. If that sounds confusing, don't worry, Heather explains the history of the name and how to make it.
We loved this fluffy, moist chocolate cake. It's not overly sweet or chocolately, but a surprisingly light chocolate cake. There are a few extra steps in the method but in our opinion, it is totally worth it. The boiled coconut pecan icing is the other distinctive element of a German's Chocolate Cake. Our reviews were a little divided on this icing, but the good news is, this cake would be delicious with whatever sort of icing you love. Buttercream? Cream cheese? Yes and yes.
We recommend giving this one a go the next time you are looking to bake a cake.
