Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 box(es) German chocolate cake mix (I used Duncan Hines because it is what I had; 15.25 oz)
4 large eggs
1 cup(s) water
1 cup(s) oil (corn or canola)
1 - tub of pecan/coconut frosting, room temp (15.5 oz)

Steps:

Mix eggs, water, and oil until blended.
Add dry cake mix. Mix until smooth.
Add tub of pecan/coconut frosting. Mix well.
Pour into a greased and floured Bundt pan (I use Baker Joy to spray pan).
Bake at 350 degrees for 40 to 50 minutes. WATCH CLOSELY. My oven took 45 minutes.
I did not frost it because the recipe I had said it did not need it. I just drizzled it with a powdered sugar chocolate drizzle. I was surprised at how great it was.

GERMAN CHOCOLATE CAKE RECIPE - NYT COOKING

German chocolate cake is an American classic, named after a chocolatier called Samuel German (as opposed to the European nation). Milder than devil’s food cake, this chocolate cake has layers that are subtle and sweet, chocolatey but not excessively so. They create a lovely, velvet-textured vehicle for the heaps of gooey, toasted coconut and pecan custard. For more chocolate appeal, rich ganache can be slathered on the sides. This not only adds another blissful layer of chocolate, but also neatens up the look and makes for a party-worthy presentation.

If desired, finish with ganache: Heat heavy cream over medium heat until very hot. Place the chocolate in a medium bowl, and pour the hot cream over the chocolate. Let stand 5 minutes. Add salt and whisk until smooth. Let this mixture stand at room temperature, stirring occasionally, until it is thick enough to spread around the sides of the cake.
