My husband loves German Chocolate Cake and I didn't want to mess with having a cake sitting around for the two of us. This is adapted from a Betty Crocker recipe and I figure I could easily freeze some of the bars for a later date! PS Bear in mind, this does not have anything to do with the country of Germany!
