Do you have a favorite cake? I’ve always loved a good chocolate and carrot cake, but today’s german chocolate cake recipe has easily become a new favorite of mine!<\/p>\n

I prefer to call this an updated version of a german chocolate cake because it’s richer and easier to make. The chocolate cake layers are made in one bowl and incredibly simple to throw together. And that homemade coconut pecan frosting? I promise it tastes better than anything you can buy at the store and it’s not too difficult to make either!<\/p>\n

To keep this cake simple, I didn’t add an outer layer of german chocolate cake icing. If you prefer to add some chocolate frosting to the outside of your cake, I’ve added that option as well!<\/p>\n
