German Chocolate Cupcakes
These cupcakes disappear in a dash when I take them to the school where I teach. Pecans, coconut and brown sugar dress up the topping nicely.

I fell in love with these cupcakes from the moment I tasted them! Coconut on top is a perfect garnish for good contrast!

I agree - I doubled the topping ingredients and baked at 375 instead of 400. They turned out perfectly!
This is a wonderful cupcake. My family does not like frostings, so this is perfect for them! The crunchy topping is delicious. I did double the topping ingredients and was so glad I did! This will be a new favorite!

This cupcake is so easy to make and tastes just like a big piece of German Chocolate Cake.
would double topping, lower temp, my first batch got a little burnt, but second batch were a big hit!!
Realy great
This is a wonderful recipe. The only change I made was to increase the pecans, coconut, and brown sugar to 1/4 cup, so there would be plenty of topping for each cupcake. Delicious!
