Cómo preparar Kay's German Chocolate Layer Cake With Coconut Pecan Filling
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 25-30 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.
- **Make the Coconut Pecan Filling:** In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, brown sugar, evaporated milk, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- Stir in the shredded coconut and pecans. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened slightly.
- Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- **Make the German Chocolate Frosting:** In a large bowl, beat together the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the evaporated milk, beating until smooth. Stir in the cocoa powder and vanilla.
- Frost the first layer of cake with a generous amount of the coconut pecan filling. Top with the second cake layer and frost with more filling. Top with the final layer of cake and frost the entire cake with the German chocolate frosting.
- Refrigerate the cake for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
