German chocolate is my mom’s favorite kind of cake so I was determined to turn it into fudge! What really makes German chocolate cake is the combination of coconut and pecan and that definitely shines in this five-minute fudge recipe. I’m not a huge milk chocolate fan like my mom is but even I am swooning over this recipe.
