German Chocolate Cake


It was a friend's birthday so it seemed a great time to try a cake recipe.  I love chocolate cake and it seems my birthday friend does too so I thought a german chocolate cake was the way to go.  I used four of our duck eggs (which are smaller than "normal" duck eggs).  I think they make the cake pretty light and fluffy.  A plus.  The cake was so high I could not cover it on the cake stand.  The recipe calls for Coconut-Pecan Caramel frosting.  Since I know coconut can be a questionable thing for some, I decided to try the mocha frosting instead.  It was yummy!  I was happy with the cake and the frosting.  The people easting it seemed to like it too.
