German Chocolate cake is my husbands FAVORITE cake!! So I decided this year for his birthday I would make him a homemade one, I had never made homemade frosting for the cake before so I was a little nervous about how it was going to turn out!! OMG, this was the BEST!! It turned out exactly how I hoped it would!! Better than the store bought!! THANKS FOR THIS WONDERFUL RECIPE!!
