Directions for German Chocolate Cupcakes

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare the cupcake pan with cupcake liners and set aside. 

To make the cake: 

2. Break the chocolate bar into pieces and melt over low heat, and set aside to cool. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. 

3. In a separate large mixing bowl, stir the butter or margarine to soften. Add the flour mixture, 3/4 cup of buttermilk and vanilla. Mix together just slightly to dampen the flour, beat for 2 minutes at medium speed. Add the melted chocolate, eggs, and remaining buttermilk. Beat for 1 minutes more, making sure mixed well together. 

4. Scoop cake batter into each cupcake liner in the prepared pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes, or toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove from cupcake pan and cool on wire racks. 

To make the frosting: 

5. In a medium saucepan, combine the evaporated milk, sugar, egg yolks, margarine or butter, and vanilla. Cook over medium heat until mixture thickens, stirring occasionally, for about 12 minutes. Remove from heat and add chopped pecans and coconut. Set aside to cool to get to a good spreading consistency, mixing occasionally. 

Add the frosting to the cupcakes after they are completely cooled.
