  • FROSTING FOR GERMAN CHOCOLATE CAKE


    1 c. sugar
    3 egg yolks
    1 tsp. vanilla
    1 c. nuts
    1 stick butter
    1 can condensed milk
    1 tbsp. cornstarch
    1 can coconut

    Combine ingredients and cook over low heat, stirring constantly until thickened, about 12 minutes. Add chopped pecans and coconut.

    (Sounds simple.)

  • I would have to buy; vanilla, cornstarch, coconut, nuts and condensed milk. I have a little plastic container of frosting all ready to go. When I was a kid I use to make all the family birthday cakes from cake mixes. I remember making the German Chocolate frosting from a dry mix in a box. I had to melt butter in a pot. Good times.

  • I may make a chocolate cake just to be able to use that frosting, you know?

  • The frosting is the best part of German Chocolate cake.

  • I have a cinch that this chocolate cake of yours wouldn't be the Duncan Hines sort of thing.  I don't think I've ever eaten a German Chocolate Cake, but seeing pics of it on the internet makes me want to migrate to Switzerland for a day. BTW, I saw on the same internet that Roman's cottage is not that far away from your pad. Plan to pay him a visit?

  • It's in Gstaad. It's not that close (suissement parlant).

    Which reminds me. Couleur3 is live from Montreal (among other places). The Montreal guy today - some singer - sounded funny. Sort of charming.

  • From the C3 site, it could be Damien Robitaille. He's a French-speaking Ontarian now living in Montreal. He's very weird. In a very good way, charming? why not! The songs from his first album (2006) are available in extenso on his site (may I suggest Mètres de mon être, Je tombe (was a big hit here) and Électrique). This last one is particularly "jouissive" as per kinky usage of words. I find him pretty sexy but unfortunately, he's got this thing for girls... like he likes them. I guess I'll have to settle with "lighting my candle", as he says.
