This recipe has been in the family a long time. One of the best icings for any type of cake or brownies, but really great for a German Chocolate Cake or the groom’s cake at a wedding.
Ingredients
- 1 (12 oz) can evaporated milk
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 stick margarine
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 1/3 cups shredded coconut
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Directions
Step 1
In medium saucepan, combine milk, sugar, egg yolks, and margarine. Add vanilla. Cook over low heat stirring constantly until thickened; approximately 12 minutes.
Step 2
Remove from heat and add the coconut and chopped pecans. Beat until thick enough to spread. Great for German chocolate cake!
