Categories     dessert

Time 1h50m

Yield 14 to 15 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
2 cups sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup blanched sliced almonds, toasted
1 cup chopped pecans
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk, shaken, at room temperature
1/2 cup sour cream, at room temperature
2 tablespoons freshly brewed coffee
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, such as Pernigotti
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
1 1/4 cups light brown sugar, lightly packed
4 extra-large egg yolks

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line cupcake pans with 14 or 15 paper liners.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium-high speed for 5 minutes, until light and fluffy. Scrape down the bowl. Lower the speed to medium, add the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla and mix well. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, and coffee. In a third bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. With the mixer on low, add the buttermilk and flour mixtures alternately in thirds, beginning with the buttermilk and ending with the flour. Don't overmix! Fold the batter a few times with a rubber spatula to be sure it's mixed.
  • Scoop the batter into the cupcake liners. (I use a 2-inch ice cream scoop.) Bake in the center of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes, remove from the pans, and allow to cool completely before frosting.
  • Coconut Frosting:
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the evaporated milk, brown sugar, and egg yolks and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for about 15 minutes, until slightly thickened. If the mixture looks a bit curdled, beat it vigorously with a whisk. Off the heat, stir in the vanilla extract, almond extract, coconut, almonds, pecans, and salt. Allow to cool for about an hour. Frost the cupcakes with a knife or small metal spatula.

  • Melt entire bag of caramels with 1/3 cup evaporated milk until smooth.
  • Pour over the first layer after it is finished baking.
  • Sprinkle chocolate chips over the top of the Carmel. (you can use as many as you want to).
  • Mix 2nd cake mix with other 1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter and 1/3 cup evaporated milk.
  • Because of the melted Carmel you won't be able to spread this over the top for the second layer so you have to make it into patties and lay them on top.
  • Once the second layer is on top, Bake for another 18 mins or until the top is flaky.

Tips and Conclusion

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips: The quality of the chocolate chips will greatly impact the flavor of your German chocolate chip bars. Look for chocolate chips that are made with real cocoa butter and have a high percentage of cocoa solids.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bars until they are set: The bars should be baked until they are set in the center. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from crumbling.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature: The bars will keep for up to 3 days at room temperature, or for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

Conclusion

German chocolate chip bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor and chewy texture, these bars are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give German chocolate chip bars a try.
