German Chocolate Cake- Recipe # 15

Germans have the most original taste with their desserts, they are very proud when their recipes aren't tainted or altered. I'm not particularly fond of coconut, so I had made this as a birthday cake for a friend. The German delight was made from scratch and I used cake flour, not enriched flour. This was the first time I've made it and this recipe had rave reviews! I'll definitely hang onto it so I can bake it again for someone else; not me lol. I'd have to say, it looks like the Big Mac of all cakes.
