Oktoberfest Cake Ideas

While Germany is well known for throwing this event, have one at home, with friends to celebrate an Oktoberfest theme cake for all to enjoy. Just need to gather the necessary ingredients to make the cake and do some decorations. Bake the German chocolate cake from the box as directed. So here we go for the frosting, first start by figuring on doing a German chocolate cake. Start by gather these ingredients; 1 cup of evaporated milk, 1 cup white sugar, 3 egg yolks beaten with 1 teaspoon of water, ½ cup of margarine, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1 cup chopped pecans and 1 cup of flaked coconut. That completes the list of ingredients needed to make the cake, all that is lacking now is the directions. Moving right along then, start by combining these ingredients into a large saucepan; evaporated milk, sugar, egg yolks, margarine and vanilla. This mixture will need to be cooked over low heat with constant stirring, until it becomes thick. Take away from the heat and toss in the pecans and coconut, then stir. Last step for this homemade frosting, spread evenly over the cake while the frosting is still warm.
