8 years ago, my aunt passed, and she who was the queen of huge, layered German Chocolate Cakes. I found her partial recipe but couldn't come close. This recipe hit! If she was here, she'd wink and say, you got it, girl! Thank you~
This brought tears to my eyes for so many reasons. My mother-in-law used to make German Chocolate Cake that was out of this world. She passed away 8 years ago and I can still smell her food and hear her say, "There ain't nothing to this!" when she was showing me how to cook. This tutorial really made me miss her even more!!
Same here @linda Maddox my Mom and oldest sister would make me one for my birthday. Soon as I seen the can of Pet Milk.. Pure love 💘 I'm 61 and still get it right
Omg my mom made a German chocolate cake every year for Thanksgiving and Christmas. She passed away 5 years ago and it still hurts. Watching you make this cake bought back so many memories
I made this recipe step by step for my step dad 2 years ago Father’s Day, he passed that September. The last text he sent me was about how good this cake was and to keep this recipe. I’m emotional even watching this video… Thank you for this recipe❤
Hello all. A little late to the game, but I made this cake for Thanksgiving 2022. I paused and played the video and made it right alongside you. Keep up the good work. I love the old-school recipes. I always look for videos like this when I'm trying new recipes out. There are 2 different types of chefs on RUclips. The ones that spend all their money on fancy camera equipment and none on the ingredients. And the real MVPs that just throw a camera up and invest in really good quality ingredients.
I know this video came out four years ago, but still, I watch now and nearly brings me to tears. I'm not sure why, I think it's just... the genuine love for cooking and for humanity and for others that is displayed by this video (and your other videos as well). Thank you so much for all you do, God bless you.
I agree too. Love to watch your videos. You the real deal. My son requested german chocolate cake for his birthday. I’m the same way. I don’t like chocolate cakes but I like this one. Thanks for this old school recipe Chef Jeff!
This is the cake i requested for my 21 birthday that my mother in law made ! My daughter was born the next day. I love German Chocolate Cake. Thank you,YUMMY😋
I am a retired Chef , my first love is baking to any cake recipe that have buttermilk & egg whites is the best. I make an Italian Cream Cake & it is Delicious to, I will try your recipe & it will be my first time making a German chocolate cake thank you for sharing.
I love cooking and baking... I actually graduated from Culinary Institute in 2003 here in my hometown of New Orleans... I'm so eager to try some of your recipes... I will as soon as our power is restored in Louisiana...💙
Just made this cake on yesterday, Christmas 2021, Best cake ever , I have also cooked the buttermilk pie. 66 yrs of age, good cook, but not a baker. Thank you, thank you, for passing on the knowledge. I am a follower for life. Keep on teaching. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾❤️🙏🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
My great grandma just passed last week at 97. She was well known for her German chocolate cake. It’s my dad’s favorite. I can’t wait to make this for him. Just watching this video made my heart smile ❤
YES!!! This is the authentic recipe with the bar of unsweetened chocolate and folding in the egg whites, plus buttermilk! Well worth the extra steps! I’m going to make one. I usually do the cake hacks but this is so special!
CHEF,THANK-YOU FOR YOUR STEP BY STEP DIRECTIONS!!! YOU TOOK THE FEAR OUT OF ME,ABOUT MAKING THE ICING FOR THE CAKE; BUT, NOW I THINK I CAN,!!!ALL BECAUSE OF YOU!!!
No dessert holds the memories, especially of Christmas, as the German Chocolate cake. It wasn't Christmas without this cake. I was probably 8 when my Mom first made it for us. She is in her heavenly kitchen now, I'll be 68 in January and I'm the one who's made them for the last 25-30 years. Thank you for bringing a wonderful dessert to everyone. God Bless.
I love the recipe and how you took a step-by-step through it. But the thing that I love the most is your personality! You are an awesome guy and you made me chuckle many times in appreciation for the joy you seem to have. I think that is awesome!
I just made this cake for my church anniversary on yesterday. We served it today after service! Making it brought back memories from my youth in Louisiana. You did the thang!!! Thank You!
I looked at this video because I was looking for a recipe for a German chocolate cake.I decided to use this recipe and I was not disappointed. It was moist and delicious! Thanks, can’t wait to try something else!
Chef your cake is delicious and very very moist thank you for sharing your recipe. My 87 year old mother ask me to cook her a German Chocolate Cake, she truly enjoyed it I said thank the Chef. Love it!
I made this and I am not a cook. It was certainly a process, but the video helped so much! It was such a hit and everyone just loved it. It was not only the best German chocolate cake I’ve ever had, it truly was the best cake I have ever tasted. Thank you! It’s my new special dessert!
I love how you told the history of the German chocolate cake 🍰. You are absolutely right. My grandfather was German and I lived in Germany for 3 years. Americans when visiting had to learn that concept real quick because they couldn't figure out why they couldn't find German chocolate cake in the bakeries. Germany's popular German chocolate cake is the Black Forest Cake. A type of Cherry Torte. If you never have had it you need to try it Chef Jeffery. It's my favorite German chocolate cake. It's sehr gute! (It's very good!)
I was confused when I was younger because my step-grandparents were Texas Germans and she made German Chocolate cake. I thought it was German because she was German. It was years later that I realized it wasn’t German. But at least it is Texan-and she was a Native born Texan, so I was half right.
I cannot wait to make this for Christmas. My mother who passed away 10 years ago use to make German Chocolate Cake for me. I could not find her old recipe, but this recipe will be a welcome surprise to my sister this upcoming Christmas.
Thank you so much for this recipe and the history! My older sister made this cake, and it was one of my favorites! She was a caterer and her German Chocolate cake was always requested! She passed in 2017, so this brings back happy memories for me. We were born and raised in Dallas, Texas but I never knew the history of the cake. Again, thank you so much!
My Grandma Hix had a tradition of baking this cake for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Thank you Sir, for sharing this recipe. Brings back many sweet memories.
My 29 yo son just texted me this week and asked me to make one soon. I haven’t made one in years and I sought out an old fashioned recipe! I’m so excited to try your technique!
I am going to make this cake tomorrow. Thank you for showing me each step. I am 72 years old and this will be my first time making a a German Chocolatecake!
I finally made this cake. Oh my goodness! This is the best cake I’ve ever made! I can’t believe how soft and fluffy the cake part is! I made a couple of mistakes, but it still worked out. My frosting got too thick in the pan, so it didn’t flow like yours did. Also, I got sweetened coconut by mistake. But it still was delicious. I think every dish in my kitchen is dirty, but it’s worth it! Thank you!
Thank you, so much for taking time to show each step. My husband ask for a german chocolate cake from scratch for his birthday. The cake was wonderful!
Hello Mr. Jeffery, I’m a new subscriber (November 14, 2021) and I never knew the history of a “German Chocolate Cake” thank you so much for the history lesson. My Godmother used to make one for me every year during the Christmas Holiday Season. This brought back such beautiful memories. She could not read the recipe but she made the best cake ever. To this day, I make one every year in her honor. Thank you for sharing your love for baking and people in your videos. I’m also happy that you came through COVID safely. May God continue to bless you abundantly. 🤗🙏🏽
Can't thank you enough for sharing this recipe! This is my aunt's favorite cake, I made it for the first time yesterday for her birthday. After looking at several recipes I stuck with yours and don't regret it one bit. Less than 24hrs and the cake is nearly finished....THANK YOU! 😊 My husband who isn't a fan of coconut couldn't resist himself!
Omg I'm so glad I stumbled across your video. I made this 2 days ago but I made it into cupcakes, my family ate them all up. Now I'm literally making a order for someone. I just changed up the sugar.
I came across this recipe and your videos I love how you take us step by step and I have learned so much watching you. Thank you my kids and family loved this. Also thank you for the history of this cake I never knew I really did think it came from Germany. Now I know it’s from Dallas Texas. Keep making videos I enjoy everyone
Amazing!!! you make it look so easy and delicious! Its one of my favorites, Thank you for taking me back to the old school days of watching and helping my mother cook from scratch! I love cooking and I like the fact that you do too! Thank you!!!
OMG. I took this into work they devoured it said it was the best German chocolate cake they've ever had in their life, thank you so much for this recipe it'll stay in my life, that's for sure ❤❤❤
My granny passed away about 4 years ago and she use to make this cake for my daddy every year for his birthday. I’m going to try your recipe for him this year. Thank you for posting this much love from Dallas, Tx by the way of Marshall, Tx ☺️
I feel like I remember this is the way it’s used to be done a lot of people had chocolate icing and then German chocolate icing but I don’t remember that when I was a kid. I remember it this way looks great.❤
I wish you could see the BIG SMILE ON MY FACE! I BELIEVE YOU! when you said “look how moist” Thank YOU for sharing your recipe! Can’t wait to try it! GOD BLESS YOU TOO!!
I have to try it. Looks SCRUMPTIOUS👍🏽. I love to bake. I am watching you make biscuits and gravy now. You are making me hungry and it is late night. Thank you for sharing. Youngsters need this culinary education

@@kellyreed8001 I just, want to know so I can make the cake. I want to be sure. I'm sure he is blessed, so am I. I'm 65 I survived covid too, by the grace of the Most High Yah. I wasn't trying to be rude.
I enjoy your videos so much. I love baking and the tip to cream the sugar and butter for 10 minutes from one of your other videos made the difference in my already delicious cakes taken to the next level. Thank you, thank you, thank you
Thanks for video, this is very similar to how my Mom makes her German chocolate cake. I followed your video and so far pretty pleased with how it came out. I haven’t cut it yet, but from what I tasted from the scraps in the pan I think I’m going to love it. Thanks for the details on mixing the butter and sugar!
My daddy's favorite cake, I only wish I'd seen this recipe before he passed away so he could taste the real thing! My husband's favorite cake too, so I will make this for my husband and in honor of my daddy! Thank you and God bless you!
One Of My Favorite Cakes Of All Time. Chef Jeff You’re Right It Takes Time And Patience Ooooo But So Worth It. Many Blessings Upon You Always & Give Moma A Hug and kiss From Me.
I made this cake for Thanksgiving, and it is the best recipe ever! It was moist, with a perfect texture. I need to put it in the freezer, because I keep eating it.... Make this cake; it is amazing!
OMG... I have had a good German Chocolate cake in years. My Nana (RIP) use to make them for me to take back Ohio; after my vacation to NC. Chef Jeffrey's German Chocolate cake looks absolutely delicious. I will try his recipe and techniques soon.
I literally typed in old school German chocolate cake and you came up because my grandmother used to make this for me every year for my bday but Thanks to you and your recipe and instructions people are ready to pay me to make a German chocolate cake from scratch. I love you’re recipe. Thank you for this
I'm not one on chocolate cake but a family friend's mother made a German chocolate cake from scratch and I just LOVED it so much I had to tell her she was the first person to EVER get me to eat chocolate cake EVER. Since this is also made from scratch I would most likely eat a piece of this cake. 👍
I too love to bake, especially in the winter. I could spend all day in the kitchen baking when it's cold outside, and German Chocolate cake is my all time favorite. You are right, it is important that you separate the yokes from the whites and beat the whites until they are fluffy before you fold them into the mixture. I enjoyed watching you make this cake. Enjoy!!!
Hey Grandad! I just made TWO of these cakes for the first time today and it came out soo well! Well actually I made a mistake on the first cake batter and forgot to mix the buttermilk in and had to do it after I folded the whites in.. I think that cake came out a little stiff.. but the other cake was on point! Thanks soo much, I’m going to save this recipe for future reference! Have a blessed day!
I made this cake today and almost ate all the batter it was so good! Thank you for sharing with us. I normally don’t comment on people videos but I had to give you your props on this one. Oh yeah the Blackened fish pasta was good as well. I made that this past Saturday!
This is the #1 cake that everyone ask me to make. I will recommend anyone who is attempting to make this cake to look at your video! The only exception that would make is to prepare my cake pans with wax/parchment paper, oil then flour the pans.
My Mom used to make sour cream pound cakes which was one of her favorite cakes. She had a cook book she got in the early '80's with this recipe. The only difference was separating the yokes and egg whites. You put in the yokes as normal, but at the end before putting in the pan, whisk the egg whites to form stiff peaks and fold them in by hand. I can't remember the cake you made, but I remember you said folding in egg whites makes cakes lighter if I'm not mistaken. Great video 👍🏾
Chef this is my favorite cake ever. I was getting ready to ask you if you had an original German Chocolate Cake recipe. OMG, our baking spirits were talking to each other. Thank you so very much.
I will be trying this recipe I love to bake and this is one of my favorite, thanks a million for your time and your recipe! May God bless you many more years to share your cooking!!!
You remind me of my youngest brother who was taken by Covid-19 two years ago. The way you talk, your movements around the kitchen and some of your funny phrases are so reminiscent of him. He was a cook and he was funny too. My grandmom would make German chocolate at least once a year. I miss him, and my grandmom. I wish you much success, and may you get many more viewers and subscribers...peace.
I enjoy watching your videos. German Chocolate cake is my favorite cake! I make it often! I make mine like you do, I have to have icing around the sides! God bless you Chef Jeffrey, keep on keeping on doing what you're doing!
Cooking is easy always told my children you can add but you can't take away bacon is a art is a swindler if you're off 1 mm trash it is not going to work for you I have learned over the years to work smart not hard especially comes to all these wonderful desserts and cakes

Wow awesome
Hello all. A little late to the game, but I made this cake for Thanksgiving 2022.
I paused and played the video and made it right alongside you. Keep up the good work. I love the old-school recipes.
I always look for videos like this when I'm trying new recipes out.
There are 2 different types of chefs on RUclips.
The ones that spend all their money on fancy camera equipment and none on the ingredients.
And the real MVPs that just throw a camera up and invest in really good quality ingredients.
What i love about this channel is the fact that he acknowledges his subscribers and this really means a lot to me.
I love the way you go step by step and make it so easy to make you are an awesome baker
Thanks so much 😊

I literally typed in old school German chocolate cake and you came up because my grandmother used to make this for me every year for my bday but Thanks to you and your recipe and instructions people are ready to pay me to make a German chocolate cake from scratch. I love you’re recipe. Thank you for this
Hope you enjoy
I'm not one on chocolate cake but a family friend's mother made a German chocolate cake from scratch and I just LOVED it so much I had to tell her she was the first person to EVER get me to eat chocolate cake EVER. Since this is also made from scratch I would most likely eat a piece of this cake. 👍
I too love to bake, especially in the winter. I could spend all day in the kitchen baking when it's cold outside, and German Chocolate cake is my all time favorite. You are right, it is important that you separate the yokes from the whites and beat the whites until they are fluffy before you fold them into the mixture. I enjoyed watching you make this cake. Enjoy!!!
Hey Grandad! I just made TWO of these cakes for the first time today and it came out soo well! Well actually I made a mistake on the first cake batter and forgot to mix the buttermilk in and had to do it after I folded the whites in.. I think that cake came out a little stiff.. but the other cake was on point! Thanks soo much, I’m going to save this recipe for future reference! Have a blessed day!
😋😋🥰🥰. I MADE THIS SCRUMPTIOUS CAKE!! OH MY GOODNESS!! SO DELICIOUS! THANKS A MILLION! BLESSINGS!!
I made this cake today and almost ate all the batter it was so good! Thank you for sharing with us. I normally don’t comment on people videos but I had to give you your props on this one. Oh yeah the Blackened fish pasta was good as well. I made that this past Saturday!
This is my son's favorite cake and my fav to make! Sir, u r a ultimate profesional, love to listen to u.
This is the #1 cake that everyone ask me to make. I will recommend anyone who is attempting to make this cake to look at your video! The only exception that would make is to prepare my cake pans with wax/parchment paper, oil then flour the pans.
I FOUND IT!!!! MY GRANNY'S EAST TEXAS GERMAN CHOCOLATE CAKE. LOVE YOU. ALSO THE P[NEAPPLE FROSTING
As usual, Chef Jeff, you have outdone yourself!
My Mom used to make sour cream pound cakes which was one of her favorite cakes. She had a cook book she got in the early '80's with this recipe. The only difference was separating the yokes and egg whites. You put in the yokes as normal, but at the end before putting in the pan, whisk the egg whites to form stiff peaks and fold them in by hand. I can't remember the cake you made, but I remember you said folding in egg whites makes cakes lighter if I'm not mistaken. Great video 👍🏾
Chef this is my favorite cake ever. I was getting ready to ask you if you had an original German Chocolate Cake recipe. OMG, our baking spirits were talking to each other. Thank you so very much.
It was fun to watch and see an expert at work. I really enjoyed it and look forward to seeing more. Great commentary. Thank you.
best recipe ever...just like my grandma....thank you
I will be trying this recipe I love to bake and this is one of my favorite, thanks a million for your time and your recipe! May God bless you many more years to share your cooking!!!
You remind me of my youngest brother who was taken by Covid-19 two years ago. The way you talk, your movements around the kitchen and some of your funny phrases are so reminiscent of him. He was a cook and he was funny too. My grandmom would make German chocolate at least once a year. I miss him, and my grandmom. I wish you much success, and may you get many more viewers and subscribers...peace.
Thank you 🙏
