Coconut Pecan Frosting

Every year we have German Chocolate cake on Dec. 23 to celebrate Joseph Smith's birthay. This is the homemade frosting I make for the cake that I make that comes straight from a box! The frosting is so good that Port has to run a half marathon every Dec. 23 to have enough calories to enjoy it!

From Cooks.com

1 c. evaporated milk
1 c. sugar
3 egg yolks
1/4 lb. butter
1 tsp. vanilla

Combine all ingredients in sauce pan. Cook over medium heat and stir until mixture thickens. This takes about 12 minutes.

1 1/3 c. coconut1 c. chopped pecans
Beat until frosting is cool and thick enough to spread.
