About this Cook
I'm 26, married, and work for a finance company as an underwriter. Born and raised in Nebraska and both my husband and I consider ourselves pure Cornhuskers. We now live in Missouri where we enjoy the friends we've made but also miss our families and friends back home.

German Chocolate Cake III
This was my first time baking a German Chocolate Cake. I followed the recipe to a T. My cakes came out flat and dense. Maybe I over mixed the batter, I'm not sure. I took others advice regarding the frosting and made 1.5 the amount it called for. I had enough for some between each layer and on top, but there was not enough frost the sides of the cake. But it looked fine and was plenty sweet! Speaking of sweet, I thought the cake called for a lot of sugar! If I made this again I think I will omit some sugar and use more German Chocolate. I would have liked it to be more chocolatey. I used 2 ounces of chocolate for the drizzle. Everyone said the cake was delicious, so I guess it's a winner! ;-)
