The German Chocolate Pound Cake Surprise is a classic American cake that has been enjoyed for many years. It is traditionally made with German chocolate, which is sweeter and lighter than regular chocolate. The cake is rich, moist, and chocolatey, with a surprise in every bite thanks to the coconut pecan frosting that is swirled throughout the cake. The cake is a perfect dessert for any occasion, from family dinners to birthday parties to holiday celebrations.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a bundt cake pan.

3.	Mix with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes, or until all ingredients are well combined.
4.	Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan.
5.	Bake for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick or cake tester comes out clean when inserted into the center of the cake.
6.	Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes.
7.	Invert the cake onto a serving plate and let cool completely before serving.
