German Chocolate Cake is a layered chocolate cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. The coconut pecan is a custard made with egg yolks, sugar, and evaporated milk; once the custard is cooked, coconut and pecans are stirred in. Of course, if you are reading this recipe, you probably can’t eat eggs, so I developed this eggless recipe version that is equally delicious and so easy to make.
