My dad always asks for it on his birthday, and everyone in my family has my grandmother’s renowned recipe stashed away in their own recipe box.

You can probably guess how surprised I was to hear otherwise!

Making a German Chocolate Sheet Cake the Right Way

In a preheated oven set to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, oil a baking sheet.

Combine the cocoa powder, sugar, and flour in a big basin.

Choco, water, butter, and shortening should all be placed in a small pot. Using medium heat, bring to a boil. Whisk in the dry ingredients once the mixture has been well mixed and smoothed out.

Incorporate the buttermilk, baking soda, salt, eggs, and vanilla in that order, stirring after each addition.

After the pan is ready, pour in the mixture and bake for 20 to 22 minutes. Allow to cool completely before coating with icing.

On medium heat, combine the milk, egg yolks, butter, and sugars in a medium-sized pot. The mixture should be brought to a boil before being reduced to a simmer. The mixture should thicken after 10 to 12 minutes of heating, during which time you should stir it constantly. Take off the stove.

Vanilla, pecans, and coconut should be stirred in.

After the cake has cooled, spread the icing. Let it cool a little.

Chill for at least one hour before serving.
