Coconut Pecan Cake Frosting
Ingredients
  • 1 cup evaporated milk
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/3 cups flaked coconut
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
1
Gather all the necessary ingredients for this recipe, making sure to have them ready before proceeding.
2
Combine 1 cup of evaporated milk, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, 3 egg yolks, and a teaspoon of vanilla extract in a saucepan over medium heat.
3
Stir the mixture constantly as it begins to simmer, aiming for a low boil that will cause the ingredients to come together and form a smooth, thick paste. This process should take around 10 minutes.
4
Once the mixture has reached its desired consistency, remove it from the heat source and stir in 1/2 cup of shredded coconut and 1/4 cup of chopped pecans.
5
Allow the mixture to cool down to room temperature before it's ready to be spread onto your cake.
