- GERMAN CHOCOLATE ICING:
- 1 cup butter, cut into 8 pieces
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cups milk chocolate chips
- 4 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract

- 5 egg yolks
- 6 tablespoons butter

- 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
Preparation
Step 1
Instructions
Line a 9x13 inch pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper and lightly spray with nonstick spray. Place 1 cup butter and chocolate chips in a large bowl. Set aside.
In a large saucepan combine sugar and evaporated milk. Bring to a boil over medium high heat stirring constantly for 10 minutes. Pour the sugar mixture over the chocolate chips and butter.
Using an electric mixer beat the mixture for 3 minutes. Mix in the vanilla.
Spread the chocolate into your 9x13 inch pan. Allow to completely cool before frosting.
To make the icing: In a medium saucepan stir together the heavy cream, sugar, egg yolks, and butter. Cook over medium heat until the mixture starts to thicken and coats the back of a spoon. Add coconut and pecans and mix well. Let the mixture completely cool before frosting the fudge. Once you put the frosting on, I liked to refrigerate for another hour so they are easy to cut.
