  • Once your cakes have cooled, place one layer on a serving platter.
  • Generously spread the coconut-pecan frosting on top, then place the second cake layer on top. Continue to frost the entire cake, making sure the top and sides are evenly covered.
  • Slice, serve, and enjoy your White German Chocolate Cake!

Notes

  • Substitute alert: Don’t have buttermilk? No worries! Simply mix 1 cup of regular milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar, let it sit for 5 minutes, and voilà—homemade buttermilk.
  • Egg whites: Using egg whites only helps keep the cake light and fluffy. If you prefer a richer cake, you can use whole eggs, but this will slightly alter the texture.
  • Cooling is crucial: Make sure the cakes are fully cooled before applying the frosting. A warm cake will cause the frosting to melt and slide off.
  • Storage tip: This cake is best enjoyed fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
