  1. German Chocolate Cake

    * 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    * 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
    * 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
    * 1/4 teaspoon salt
    * 1 cup butter, softened
    * 1 cup sour cream
    * 4 large eggs
    * 4 ounces sweet baking chocolate, melted
    * 1/2 cup milk
    * 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

    Topping

    * 3/4 cup evaporated milk
    * 1/2 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
    * 1/2 cup butter
    * 1 can (3 1/2 ounces) flaked coconut, or about 1 1/3 cups
    * 1 cup chopped pecans

    Grease and flour two 8-inch square baking pans.

    In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, butter, sour cream, eggs, chocolate, milk, and vanilla. Beat with mixer at low speed until blended. Increase mixer to high and beat 2 minutes longer. Spoon batter into prepared pans. Bake in a preheated 350° oven for about 35 minutes, or until a wooden pick or cake tester inserted in center comes out clean.

    Remove to racks to cool completely.

    Make topping.
    In a saucepan over medium heat, bring evaporated milk, brown sugar, and butter to a full boil; remove from heat. Stir in coconut and pecans. Set aside to cool to room temperature.

    When cake is cool, place one layer on cake platter; spoon half of the coconut mixture onto the layer. Top with remaining cake layer and top with remaining topping.
