Broiled Coconut Topping image

My husband does not like the gooey icing of German Chocolate cake, so I found this pretty slick alternative! It has all the flavors, but a very distinct "crunch", it almost caramelizes on top of the cake. Try it, I think you will be pleasantly surprised! I do not use the nuts as my husband does not like nuts in his cakes, only cookies! This is perfect for a 13x9 cake, I often use a Swiss Chocolate cake mix.

This coconut topping is the perfect finishing touch to any tropical-themed dessert. It's also great on ice cream or yogurt.

This coconut topping is dangerously delicious! I could eat it straight out of the bowl. But I won't, because I want to save some for my dessert.

Not bad, but not as good as I expected. Maybe I did something wrong.
