In honor of Andrew's Mom's birthday today, I made her favorite, German Chocolate Cake. Since I knew Andrew would be transporting the cake from my place to work to home in Plymouth, and because it gave me an excuse to use one of his birthday gifts to me, I baked it in a pan rather than going for the traditional 3-layer:
I think it came out really well. Actually, anything would taste good with that coconut/pecan topping. I recommend toasting coconut and nuts before using them in baking because it intensifies their flavors.
And as an added bonus, my coworkers got to taste it as well since I had enough leftover batter for a mini-cake.
Happy Birthday Charlotte!
