Coconut Pecan Frosting

Since Mom's birthday is tomorrow, I thought I'd put this recipe on the blog since she loves German Chocolate Cake.

1/2 cup evaporated milk (12 oz can)
1 1/2 cup sugar
4 slightly beaten egg yolks
3/4 cup butter/margarine
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
7 oz coconut
1 1/2 cup chopped pecans.

Combine ingredients and put in saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened about 10-12 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in coconut and pecans. Cool then apply to cake.

When I make this, I just use all of the can of evaporated milk. My family likes more coconut and I usually only put in about 1/2 cup of the finely chopped pecans. It's quite tasty and as you can see really healthy for you. ;)
