Ingredients

1 (18.25 ounce) package Pillsbury® Moist Supreme® German Chocolate Cake Mix
1 cup water
3 large eggs
½ cup Crisco® Pure Vegetable Oil
1 (14 ounce) can EAGLE BRAND® Sweetened Condensed Milk, divided
3 tablespoons butter
1 large egg yolk
⅓ cup chopped pecans
⅓ cup flaked coconut
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 13x9-inch baking pan.
Beat cake mix, water, eggs, oil, and 1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until moistened. Beat on high speed for 2 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of cake comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine remaining sweetened condensed milk, butter, and egg yolk in a medium saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir until thickened, about 6 minutes. Add pecans, coconut, and vanilla; mix well. Allow frosting to cool slightly.
Spread frosting over warm cake. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator.
