Cómo preparar Baker's Original German Sweet Chocolate Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans. Line the bottoms with parchment paper.
- Melt 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter in a double boiler or microwave. Let cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, cream together 2 cups (4 sticks) of unsalted butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 4 large egg yolks, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk and the melted butter.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- In a clean bowl, beat 4 large egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto wire racks to cool completely.
- While the cakes cool, prepare the frosting (see below).
- Once the cakes are completely cool, frost the layers and the top of the cake.
- **Coconut-Pecan Frosting:**
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 (12-ounce) can of evaporated milk, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 2 large egg yolks (lightly beaten), ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a simmer (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut and 1 cup chopped pecans.
- Let the frosting cool slightly until it thickens enough to spread easily (about 15-20 minutes).
