German Chocolate Cake/Cupcake
German Chocolate Cake is a layered chocolate cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. The frosting is typically made with sweetened condensed milk, coconut flakes, chopped pecans, and egg yolks. It is a rich and decadent dessert that is often served on special occasions.Cupcakes are individual portions of the cake, baked in muffin tins and topped with a dollop of frosting. German Chocolate Cupcakes are just as delicious as the cake, but in a smaller, more portable form.
