Good recipe. The frosting took much longer than 12 minutes. I added some additional sugar to try to thicken it, and then finally just gave up. It did turn out delicious, though! The rest of the recipe I followed unchanged. Baked in two 9" rounds for 30 minutes. Making the frosting first was definitely the way to go -- I let the frosting cool FULLY to room temp, and racked the cakes to cool fully before frosting, so it went just fine.

This was the best german chocolate cake I have ever eaten. So moist and yummy! Got better the longer it sat. Only change was to make about 3/4 the frosting.

The taste was wonderful. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I've made it twice now, and both times it kind of sank in in the middle.

Made this for my husband's aunt's birthday. This cake turned me into a german chocolate cake fan. The icing is to die for!! I had to cook the icing significantly longer than specified, but it was worth it!

Very tasty! The only difference from the recipe was that I ended up cooking the frosting longer than the recommended time because it was still too runny.
