Receta Guiltless German Chocolate Cake
Cook's Country Magazine featured a Reduced-Fat German Chocolate Cake. I decided to give this recipe a try because I was impressed with the calorie and fat reduction: Traditional: This version: Calories: 740 Calories: 340 Fat: 45g Fat: 13g Saturated Saturated Fat: 23g Fat: 13g I was pleased that the cake turned out very moist! Overall the cake was very easy to make, as was the frosting. I'd make this recipe again!

- Off heat, stir in vanilla and all but 1 tablespoon each of pecans and coconut. Cool to room temperature.
