{Recipe} German Chocolate Frosting

German Chocolate Frosting

1 cup Sugar
1 cup Evaporated Milk
1 stick Butter
3 Egg Yolks
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 1/3 cup Coconut
1 cup Chopped Pecans

Mix sugar, milk, butter, and egg yolks in a saucepan on medium heat.  
Cook until thick- about 12 minutes.  Stir in vanilla, coconut, and pecans.

Thicken frosting with more coconut, or add more milk for a thinner frosting.
Allow frosting to slightly cool, all while resisting the urge to spoon this straight into your mouth:)
Frost your cake, cupcakes, or chocolate covered donuts and enjoy!
