Organic German Chocolate Cake<\/p>\n

Ingredients:
\n* 4 oz Organic Homemade German Chocolate (12 TBSP Organic cocoa powder, 16 tsp organic sugar, 4 TBSP Organic raw butter)
\n* 1\/2 C Warm filtered water
\n* 4 Organic Eggs, seperated
\n* 2 C Organic flour (We soak, sprout, and grind our own organic wheat berries)
\n* 1 tsp Organic baking soda
\n* 1\/4 tsp Pink Himalayan Salt
\n* 1 C organic raw butter
\n* 1 3\/4 C Organic sugar
\n* 1 tsp Organic Vanilla
\n* 1 C Organic buttermilk (You can make your own buttermilk by adding 1 tsp of organic vinegar to 1 C of Raw organic milk)<\/p>\n

Directions:<\/p>\n

* Heat Oven to 350*
\n* Cover the bottoms of 3 round cake pans with Parchment paper, grease the sides of the cake pans with a little organic raw butter
\n* Combine Homemade Organic German chocolate ingredients and stir well (it will have a paste like consistency), add 1\/2 C of warm water and stir well; Set aside.
\n* Separate organic eggs – beat egg whites with mixer on high until stiff peaks form; set aside
\n* Mix organic flour, baking soda, and salt in bowl; set aside
\n* Beat organic butter and sugar in large bowl with mixer until light and fluffy.\u00a0 Add egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each.\u00a0 Blend in German chocolate and vanilla.\u00a0 Add flour mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating until well blended after each addition.
\n* Add egg whites; stir gently until well blended.\u00a0 Pour cake batter into prepared pans.
\n* Bake 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean.\u00a0 Immediately run small spatula around cakes in pans.\u00a0 Cool cakes on wire racks.\u00a0 Spread Organic Coconut-Pecan Filling between layers and on top of cake.<\/p>\n

Organic Coconut-Pecan Filling<\/p>\n

Ingredients:
\n* 4 egg yolks
\n*12 oz Organic Homemade Evaporated Milk (3 C of Organic Raw Milk)
\n* 1 1\/2 tsp Organic Vanilla
\n* 1 1\/4 C Organic Sugar
\n* 3\/4 C (1 1\/2 sticks) Organic Raw butter
\n* 7 oz Organic, unsweetened coconut
\n* 11\/2 C Organic Raw Chopped Pecans<\/p>\n

Directions:<\/p>\n

* Make your homemade Organic Evaporated Milk – Pour 3 C of Organic raw milk into a heavy pot.\u00a0 Make a mental note of where the marking is for 3 C of milk.\u00a0 The goal is to reduce the milk by 60%<\/strong> in order to produce a very creamy and concentrated result.\u00a0 Bring milk to a boil; stirring constantly with a wooden spoon – scrape off any sticky bits that may be on the bottom of the pan.\u00a0 Once the milk comes to a boil, reduce the heat down to simmer.\u00a0 At this point, the milk doesn’t need to be stirred constantly; still, you should give it a stir about every 8 minutes.\u00a0 Your biggest concern at this juncture is to make sure the milk doesn\u2019t burn or boil over.\u00a0 The heat should remain low and the milk steaming not boiling.\u00a0 As the water content decreases, the volume will start to lessen and the milk will become thicker, creamier, and more concentrated.\u00a0 Once the milk level reaches the 1 1\/2-cup point which you have previously marked on the side of the pot, it\u2019s done. The finished product is then taken off the heat to be strained.\u00a0 Strain milk and add to your saucepan to make your frosting.
\n* Beat egg yolks, milk, and vanilla in large saucepan with whisk until blended well.
\n* Add sugar and butter, cook on medium heat for 12 minutes or until thickened and golden brown, stirring constantly.\u00a0 Remove from heat.
\n* Add coconut and nuts; mix well.\u00a0 Cool.
\n* Frost between layers of your cake and the top of the cake
\n* Garnish with Organic Raw Pecans<\/p>\n
