My husband just opened a BBQ restaurant. He handles all the BBQ and I bake the made from scratch desserts. I love your tutorials! My mom passed away in 2005 so I can't call her for advice anymore...but any questions I have now, I watch you! Thank you again for these wonderful tutorials.
+Sbeila Castillo That's probably one of the nicest compliments you could give somebody. How sweet (literally!)
That is such a wonderful compliment. I often watch videos too for tips.
+lies, all lies. Thank you😊

You are so very welcome. I'm baking a German Chocolate cake right now. Hope you have a wonderful evening (if you're on CST)
UPDATE: I made this cake for my congregations hospitality & it was a HUGE HIT! Only thing I did differently is I covered the entire outside of the cake with a chocolate coffee buttercream to make it even more DECADENT! It's like u said Stephanie, this is TRULY a party cake. I can't thank you enough. Will make this again & again. O & BTW..... I SUBSCRIBED!!! 😃😄☺😊
I discovered this video back in 2015, I immediately wanted to bake this cake for Mothers day, but time passed and I continued baking and testing other recipes, last weekend I finally gave this a try and the wait was completely worth it. My family loved this cake, especially the frosting. This is the video that made me fall in love with baking, I have watched it multiple times, I guess what I enjoy the most is your passion and the love you put into teaching us. Thank you Stephanie.
Oh Stephanie! I made this cake last week for my family. It was superb - thank you so very much.
I'm so thankful for the "conversion" from cups to grams... make everything easier for Europeans. Love your recipe!
Thank you so much for the amazing recipe. I made this yesterday. The cake was dense and incredibly moist. It was almost like a fudgy brownie. My family really enjoyed it. I reduced the amount of sugar to 370g and used chocolate ganache instead of coconut pecan frosting. Because some kids don't like pecan :P
If you want to make the classic German Chocolate Cake you may want to use german chocolate. I believe there is a recipe on the box of german chocolate that is the original recipe.
I would never change your recipe because it always comes out perfect. I follow what you say to the letter.
I'm making this cake today and I can't wait. It's 2:00am and I'm writing a list watching your videos I want to thank you for being so patient because of your recipes I have become a better baker and cook. Take care Shawn
Hello. I absolutely adore 'joy of baking' recipes.. So far I've done your cinnamon rolls, apple pie, banana muffins, oat bran muffins, low fat banana bread, vanilla cupcakes, irish soda bread, red velvet cake and they've all turned out wonderfully. The red velvet cake, especially was an instant hit for a birthday.
Your instructions are very calm and easy to follow that make even the toughest ones seem like a "piece of cake".
Thank you for your videos Ms Stephanie Jaworski !
In reply to audiofreun2, it is not actually called German chocolate and certainly not as a marketing strategy to make people think it was German quality. It was originally known as German's chocolate cake, because it was a recipe using German's Chocolate, which was named after Sam German who developed it. Nowadays, it's just known as German Chocolate cake, but that's where it came from. So, not named for a country, but for a person whose last name was German. Great video! Thank you!
thank you. this makes so much more sense now since I am german and I could tell you: we don't usually use coconut in any german cake recipe I know of and Pecans are pretty much unknow aka not/ hardly available in Gemany at all!!!
Choux Cake Studio wow, I didn't know that!! Thanks for the info!!🙂
Stephanie is from Canada but lives in the US. Grams are far more accurate than cups which is why she mentions them. Plus RUclips is a world wide audience and everyone outside of North America uses grams. I suggest you watch the Weight vs Volume video and you will see why she always quotes grams and recommends Americans switch.
tried this recipe and it came out well, it was soft and delicious...my friend's son liked it very much...good way of presentation and easy to follow
This woman is so brilliant at baking!
Hi. I'd like to say thank you. These demonstrations are helpful and easy to understand for a beginner like me. I am just a home-baker in Korea and really having fun watching the demos. Thank you
Made this cake for a birthday party! Huge success! The proportions of frosting to cake were perfect, just enough so that it wasn’t too sweet or lacking sweetness. One of my favorites! Thank you!
During my hospitalize stay a few week ago, I've tried German Chocolate Cake which recommended by a guy work there. I really love it. Thanks for the video. I will try to make it some day.
You have very interesting equipment! I wish I could afford half of it. I really enjoyed the video! Thanks.
Love this recipe. This original version of German Chocolate Cake is the best. No added chocolate - just the right taste of chocolate cake with the decadent coconut/pecan frosting.
i love this cake and i’ve made it severally, it came out sooooo perfect.thanks Stefanie
That is the best frosting I have ever tasted!
I love this website. Just made this but added extra vanilla essence to frosting. Delicious! Thank you.
super super cake, i have made it by myself for the first time and it was gorgeous,you explain everything very good,thank you for this wonderful cake recipe,Maria Netherlands
You can frost the sides of the cake if you like.
Stephanie I made this cake and it was so moist and delicious, thank you. I will be trying the Red Velvet cake.
I just made one for my husband's birthday that looks very similar to yours. I did create my own recipe of course, but I love your videos and enjoy watching them!
A liter is a unit of volume. It's based on the metric system, in which 1 dm^3 (cubic decimeter) equals 1 liter. For example, you can correctly say "1 liter of flour", but that just isn't much used.
And thank you so much for using weight and metric system Stephanie, we really appreciate it =D
Love the coconut frosting on the cake. And the frosting on the layer also. Havent gotten around to baking just yet but I have my eye on some of the key baking necessities. Just had a store bought one.
Ah, you haven't tried it. I've made German chocolate cake from scratch (not this recipe but a very similar one) for my brother's birthday, and it was fantastic. My family loves the coconut-pecan frosting. It's a wonderful complement to the moist chocolate flavor of the cake.
When I do a cake like this I always use sugar water sirup mixed with some Grand Marnier or something similar, and moisten the three-four layers. The result is awesome.
Just a tip, since she used kosher salt I would add half of what she said in regular salt, otherwise the cake will be too salty.
The brand of induction burner I use is Caso.
You are the only Baker I have seen take the time to use Metric Units
+Creative Inspirations That's why I love her + she doesn't use a KA stand mixer.
Great recipe. I'm from Europe, so I appreciate that you are converting cups and ounces to grams and milliliters. However, some of them are incorrect. Pecans, coconut, and all kinds of nuts, cannot be in milliliters! Only liquids :) So in this recipe there should be about 128 g of pecans, and about 140 g of coconut :) Thank you,bye!

How many hogsheads is that?
Usually your oven will say when it is up to temperature. It is a good idea to let the equalize for about 10 minutes longer than that.
I no this is vary random but I love that pig in the background
Stephanie thanks you very much, i love your channel and recipes, i am mexican and is very good you mention the grams and mililiters, i have made some of your recipes, they are perfect if we get the instructions!! i am your fan
Could it have been under baked? Also, make sure that the melted chocolate has cooled to room temperature before adding it to the batter.
Thank you for the video! Very helpful!
LOVE the accent! Reminds me of my lovely childhood on the shore of a Minnesota lake in the woods. Ja, youbetcha.
Hi Joy i like your all recipe. So good, Thank you so much. I need practic sometime i don't understand everything because i' m learning English know. God bless you
Could be a few reasons for this happening. Did you weigh your ingredients as too much or too little of an ingredient can cause problems. Also, this problem can be caused from over mixing the batter or that the oven temperature is too low.
Great recipe,just like every recipe you are giving,thanks to you I have begun to bake and every time I am succeed in whatever I make ,thank you very much I love you and all your recipes,you are the best
This recipe was so delicious. The cake was chocolatey, moist and light. The frosting was not too sweet and was just enough for the three layers Thank you.
All your recipes have been well received and everyone thinks is great and "not too sweet"!

German Chocolate Cake is sooo yummy! I am obsessed! I am eating some now! lol
This cake is one of my favorites, but i have never uses coffee in the batter. I have baked German Chocolate Cakes on many occasions so I am looking forward to trying it with the coffee.
Definitely I am going to make it!! I like specially the coffee as ingredient. Thank you very much for sharing.
I have tried a lot of your recipes and they are simply great and I enjoy watching your channel. There is one thing I would like to ask and hope you can help me with this. Why do German chocolate cakes using all purpose flour not call for baking powder. I made one awhile back and it did not call for baking powder, just baking soda. The layers did not rise well and I wanted 3 layers in 9" pans. I don't always have cake flour. I would like to make this cake with all purpose flour and 3, 9' pan. Thanks for your help in advance.
trying Baking soda is normally used in recipes that contain an acidic ingredients. Therefore if your recipes contain things like brown sugar, buttermilk, regular unsweetened cocoa powder, then you need baking soda.
Joy of Baking hmm l'm.

omg people...Saying that a German chocolate cake *must* be made with German made chocolate is like insisting that a New York Cheesecake be made with cheese made in New York.
Adrian Smith It’s not German made chocolate. It’s named after Sam German. It’s a type of sweet chocolate he invented in America.
Adrian Smith I know it's ridiculous. Lol. I was thinking the same thing.
Actually, German chocolate was a brand of sweet milk chocolate. It is now made by Baker's baking chocolate.
@@Hadrianus01 Just pointing out that it has nothing to do with Germany, the country.
this is the best cake recipe and frosting i have seen ever....awesome
This cake is soft and moist. If your cake was heavy it could have something to do with tripling the recipe.
Joy, can I use all purpose flour, but take out 2 tbs from each cup and add 2 tbs of cornstarch? Joy of Baking
This is a nice lady! It is easy to follow her instructions!
Ms. Stephanie--You don't have to answer my question. I was at work when I posted my question and didn't see your recipe video. I assumed it was the standard recipe. I will try your recipe instead. I like the color/hue of your cakes and it's right on time. Someone just minutes ago ordered a GCC for their Thanksgiving table!
I'll use my own Coconut Pecan Icing though.
You hit on the same 'other' reason I don't too much care for the traditional---I too have always thought it was ridiculously sweet. However, I try and give my clients what they like.
Shame though--- I reeeeaaaally love that strange, fine, fluffy texture.....of the 'Original' German Chocolate Cake. Thank you Ms. Stephanie.
14-15 people...lol I'd eat that entire cake by myself.
kalel Wilson 😂😂😂😂
pineapple upside down cake
Pine apple upside down cake
My plan, too!
Looks like a delicious cake, but I don’t think it should be called German chocolate! I would use the recipe,but it’s just not German choc
Yes, you could use all purpose (plain) flour.
Yes, you could do that.
I did and absolutely delicious.... thanks ....
Though I'm rarely in the mood for chocolate , my taste buds and it simply don't usually get along. Some chocolate good stuff like this tease my stomach and tongue upon laying my eyes on it. I'd love this cake in my kitchen , I think the host cook is pretty bland but her food looks good. I mean like really good , just like her pineapple upside down cake I posted on.
Kahlil Sykies Stephanie is BLAND??? Surely you meant to use another word. To call someone bland is rude!
I love all your recipes!! I would like to know if I can used regular flour? It is hard to find it in my country, thank you very much to teach us this delicious recipes, I'm a big fan of you! Hola from Honduras, Central America
Yes, you could use regular flour.
We love your comments however due to our busy schedule questions on the recipes may take some time. We check our Facebook page more often so if you would like a quicker answer post your question there. A link to our Facebook page is in the description above.
Hello instead of cake flour can I use the ordinary flour? Thank you! :)
I use only Bakers German Chocolate.Its a pet peeve I can't stand that other chocolate.Thats the taste that I love.Big Compliments I get on my cake.
ml refers to volume and in this case the recipe calls of a volume of 240 ml of pecans.
another one of your great tutorials.thank you
hmm... it looks like many people don't know the name/history of German chocolate. It is just a type of semi-sweet chocolate (with slightly more sugar than our common semi-sweet chocolate). It was named after its creator, Mr. Sam *German*.
Originally it was called German's chocolate, but later it became known as German chocolate.
Definitely making this very soon !
Mililiters is a way to measure volume, which means how much space a material is occupying. Since liquids always take the shape of the container they are in, its easy to measure them by volume (and not by their weight - grams). Thats why liquids are usually measured with ml (volume). But u can measure other materials by volume as well. When u say "a cup of flour" you refer to the flour's volume and NOT its weight. Now instead of a cup, you can say 240 ml, which is how much volume a cup occupies:P
i have seen many video but just i liked your all video its different and better when you teach us thanks god bless you
I love all your videos joy, you bake so good, have to make some off your recepies, thank you for sharing them and for your time.
Now I'm telling you what's the truth, you really done a good job on making that cake, I wish somehow that you could have sliced a piece of that cake and handed it to me through the internet ... LOL ... thanks for posting :-)
Going through your videos and will be baking this for our special religious day.
this is for my boyfriend's birthday. He is such a good man and does so much for everyone , and I can't but him anything, so I want to do something special. Both our moms were excellent cooks and made phenomenal German Chocolate cakes. I want to get this right. To get it authentic, Should I stick with the old German chocolate that you say is too sweet like maybe our moms might have used in the 1960's and 70's...Also , could I use just 2 layers?. ( we are not really dessert eaters)
Thank you for sharing this. I saved it in my Tutorials List. That way I can have my laptop in the kitchen and make it with you.
German Chocolate Cakes are not from Germany. It is an American recipe that uses German Chocolate.
Note to everyone. German Chocolate Cakes are not from Germany. It is an American recipe that uses German Chocolate.
It's name after a Baker's Chocolate brand employee nanmed Samuel German. On the box it's actually called German's Sweet Chocolate and cake recipe is German's Chocolate Cake.
hello dear joy, thank you very much for making us life exquisitely sweet, personally I have made several of your recipes and always come out wonderful and this is why I would like to know: what is cake flour? I made the German cake and the bread did not fit, I guess it was my mistake in choosing the type of flour, could you please tell me how to make it?
Cake flour is a low gluten flour that gives cakes a soft and tender crumb. You can make cake flour. Take 1 cup all purpose flour (130 grams). Remove 2 tablespoons and replace with 2 tablespoons cornstarch. Sift before using.
hello Joy thank you very much dear to answer, it was indeed my mistake I confused the flour, surely now it will be great, another question: your cup is 130g? 2-The coffee mixture should be hot when added to the smoothie or it does not matter? I regret the inconvenience, I appreciate your time ... beautiful day!
Excellent instructions. Thank you.
@AnnaMurasova make a the two cakes from the pans, and empty them on to a cooling rack. Use one of the empty pans for the other batter.
This looks so good but just wondered for the frosting, if I don't want to add the nuts, do I just add more coconut to balance out the recipe?
Thank you....it's just like my mom's recipe! I'm gonna try to recreate it in her honor!
My favorite cake growing up...🍰🍰😃
Can you use decaf coffee
Yes, you could do that.
you are a wonderful teacher!!
Thank you for sharing your recipes. It's always perfect. :-)
Hi, I would like to turn these into cupcakes and fill and top them with the german choc frosting you teach. Please tell me how many cupcakes you think this will make and how much frostign I will need. Thanks so much :0)
Hi, I suppose a lot of people asked that before, but I was just wondering why this cake is called German chocolate cake, as for me being German, I've never seen this kind of cake anywhere around here. Neither homemade by family or friends nor prepacked in a supermarket or so. Furthermore, pecans seem such an unusual ingredient for a German cake. o.O
Please don't get me wrong, that cake does look really good :)
it s called german chocolate cake, because the chocolate is named german chocolate. but not because its related to germany, but its inventors last name was german.
She is a oven or cake queen!!!
yo i truly adore your work do you plan on making any more anytime soon? that would be really dope if you did
definitely will try this cake 😊
Based on five seconds worth of research, including Stephanie's website, it's very close. Stephanie substituted a less sweet chocolate, added some cocoa powder, and used light cream instead of evaporated milk in the frosting.
It's too close to call, in fact.
Can I use freshly scraped coconut for the frosting? Please suggest..
Stefanie... could you help me by suggesting the best cake I can make for my baby's birthday. I am going to make it by myself and I always follow your recipes as I trust them totally!
I really want to add this to my thanksgiving menu but it so time consuming. I'm May try baking it a day or so in advance. I love German chocolate cake!
I always use the Duncan hines German Chocolate cake mix and make the homemade frosting.
Great idea thanks
honestly :) in germany nobody would know what "german chocolate" is. we dont know such a term. it could be a "marketing strategy" in america to create a special name, which promises "german" quality. nevertheless I watch your videos with pleasure.
If u bothered to read you would know that it is an American made cake that uses German chocolate. And she is not dissing German chocolate.
The frosting my mom made was darker & alot more of it. you don't even have enough for lots more between the layers & the whole cake.
I have to make that
very good yummy cake
Very moist luv it
looks good
