Instructions
00:00 Introduction
Chocolate Cake
01:02 Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and prepare two 9" round cake pans by lightly greasing and flouring. I also recommend lining the bottom of each pan with a round of parchment paper. Set aside.
01:07 Combine flour, sugars, cocoa powder, instant coffee, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl (or in the bowl of a stand mixer) and use an electric mixer to stir until well-combined.
01:58 Add oil and melted butter and stir well (mixture will be very thick), then stir in eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla extract.
03:11 Gradually add buttermilk, stirring until completely combined.
03:26 Slowly add hot water (be careful not to splash yourself!), stirring until ingredients are well-combined. Pause occasionally to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
04:22 Evenly divide batter into prepared pans. Transfer to oven and bake on 350F (175C) for 25-30 minutes and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Allow cakes to cool for 15 minutes before inverting onto cooling rack to cool completely before filling and frosting.
Coconut Caramel Filling
05:37 Once your cake is in the oven, begin preparing your coconut/caramel German Chocolate Cake Filling. In a medium-sized saucepan, combine egg yolks and evaporated milk and whisk until eggs are lightly beaten.
06:23 Add butter, sugars, and salt and place saucepan over medium/low heat. Stir frequently until mixture is a light golden brown and thickened (about 10 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract, chopped pecans, and shredded coconut.
08:27 Allow to cool before spreading over cake.
Chocolate Frosting
09:35 In the bowl of a stand mixer OR in a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat butter until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and cocoa powder until completely combined. Stir in vanilla extract and milk.
Assembly:
11:17 Once your cake layers have cooled and your coconut/caramel filling is no longer warm to the touch, you can assemble your German Chocolate Cake!
11:31 Place one cake round on serving tray or cake platter. Use your chocolate frosting to spread or pipe a border around the edge of the cake. Fill the border with half of your coconut/caramel filling.
12:20 Top with second cake round. Frost top and sides of entire cake with remaining chocolate frosting.
13:02 Top off cake with remaining half of coconut/caramel frosting.
13:15 Slice, serve, and enjoy!

Notes
¹If you don’t have buttermilk on hand, please see my easy buttermilk substitute.²This makes enough to lightly but entirely cover the cake without much left over for decorations. Since this is such a rich cake, this amount of frosting will be sufficient for most people. However, if you intend to decorate, please increase the frosting recipe by 50%.³I recommend evaporated milk because you will likely have some over from your coconut filling if you purchased a 12 oz can. However, regular milk will work just as well!
