Instructions Jump to Ingredients ↑

  1. Grease two 9-inch layer cake pans and line bottoms with waxed paper.

  2. Sift together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

  3. Cream butter; add flour mixture, 3/4 cup buttermilk, and vanilla. Stir until dry ingredients are moistened; beat at medium speed of electric mixer for 2 minutes, scraping bowl from time to time.

  4. Add melted chocolate, eggs, and remaining 1/4 cup buttermilk. Beat 1 minute longer.

  5. Pour batter into prepared cake pans. Bake in a preheated 350° oven for about 35 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  6. Cool in pans on rack for 15 minutes. Remove and cool completely on racks.

  7. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine milk, sugars, butter, and vanilla. Bring to a full boil, stirring constantly.

  8. Remove from heat (mixture might appear a bit curdled).

  9. Quickly stir a small amount of the hot liquid into the beaten egg yolks; return egg yolk mixture to the hot mixture in saucepan and blend well. Return to a boil, stirring constantly.

  10. Remove from heat and stir in coconut and pecans. Cool to spreading consistency, beating occasionally.

  11. Here then i added me own little flair, it's perfect just the way it is, but this adds a little something extra. I chopped up some more pecans somewhat small and pressed them into the sides all the way around. Then i just topped it with some chocolate shavings. Enjoy.
