From Cooking Light (September 2000). Topping the glaze with a bit of extra coconut and nuts dresses it up a bit.

Steps:
- Set the oven at moderate (180C/350F).
- Grease a 6-7 cup fluted ring cake mould with 30g of butter, putting large dabs in the creases of the mould and embedding an almond in each dab. Put in the refrigerator to set while preparing the mixture.
- Cream the remaining butter well. Gradually beat in the sugars, beating well between each addition. Add the egg yolks one at a time, and beat until smooth. Stir in the vanilla and almond essences. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt three times and fold into the creamed mixture alternately with the milk.
- Whisk the egg whites until stiff, stir a spoonful into the cake mixture and, when incorporated, fold in the remaining whites carefully and lightly using a large metal spoon.
- Pour into the prepared tin and bake for about 1 1/2 hours, or until the cake is cooked when tested with a skewer. Allow to stand for about 15 miutes before turning out.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before dusting with sifted icing sugar. Cut this rich cake into thin slices to serve.

Steps:
- 1. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Cooked Coconut-Pecan Frosting: Place a medium saucepan, over medium heat. Melt 4 ounces (1 stick) Butter. Whisk in: 3 Tablespoons Flour 1 1/2 cups Sugar
- 2. Then slowly pour in: 1 1/2 cups Milk Whisk until thickened - about 6 minutes.
- 3. Remove from heat and stir in: 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract 1 cup Coconut, shredded 1/2 cup Pecans, chopped
- 4. Mix a German Chocolate Cake according to package directions. Spray a 10 - 12 cup Bundt pan with non-stick baking spray. Pour 2/3 of the batter into the bundt pan, then scoop half of the frosting into the center of the batter, trying to keep it from touching the sides of the pan.
- 5. Bake for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and allow cake to sit for about 25 minutes before turning out onto the serving plate.
- 6. Prepare the Homemade Marshmallow Fluff: Yield: Around 3 cups In a large bowl, combine egg whites, corn syrup and salt; beat with mixer in high speed for 10 minutes or until thick. Add in confectioner's sugar; beat on low speed until blended. Continue to beat until soft peaks form. Beat in vanilla around 2 more minutes, until mixture looks like marshmallow fluff.
- 7. Frost cool cake with the remaining Coconut-Pecan Frosting. Do not frost the inner circle of the bundt cake. Leave unfrosted to insert Marshmallow fluff. Dip Marshmallow fluff in the center of the cake. Filling up the entire middle. Once center is filled, blend fluff and frosting to meet up together. Generously sprinkle walnuts [or pecans] and shredded coconuts on top of fluff. I used walnuts. Serve.
GERMAN CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE
This is a different and easy way to enjoy german chocolate cake. I found this recipe on divinerecipes.com and wanted to post it here on Zaar with my favorites. Make sure the bundt pan is greased and floured well so that the cake doesn't stick. I did not use the caramel topping as a glaze after the cake cooled, thought it might be too much. Let me know what you think! Hope you enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a Bundt pan.
- Combine first six ingredients in a large bowl and beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.
- Pour batter into prepared Bundt pan. Pour the 1/2 jar of caramel topping on the batter and then swirl it into the batter.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven. Let cool for about 10 minutes and remove from pan.
- Let cool for about 25 minutes and then drizzle the remaining 1/2 jar of caramel topping over cake.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Use fresh, unsalted butter, pure vanilla extract, and good quality flour.
- Make sure all of your ingredients are properly measured before mixing them together.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until they are light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
- Gradually add the eggs to the butter and sugar mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk. This will help to prevent the batter from becoming too thick or lumpy.
- Bake the cake according to the recipe instructions. Every oven is different, so keep an eye on the cake to make sure it doesn't overbake.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before glazing or frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting or becoming runny.
