Excellent icing! The only additional thing I would point out is that the canned milk in the recipe is evaporated milk. Thanks!

This was absolutely delicious! Just the way German chocolate icing should taste. I thought that it made more than enough for a 13" x 9" cake. It was a tiny bit thick, however the next time I make it I will cook it a minute or so less.

Made this for my dad's birthday to go on the German chocolate bundt cake off of this site... the cake is fantastic, and this icing put it over the top delish! I'm not a big fan of the fake tasting box mixes and canned icing so this was great for me. My dad's favorite cake is German chocolate and he said this is the best one he's ever had... icing is thick and creamy and rich... but it does have to chill in the fridge to thicken up enough to not be runny. Made the perfect amount to frost my cake. Thanks for a great recipe!

Very Good! Although an important thing to mention is that it's calling for evaportated milk. I doubled the recipe because I am always afraid of running out of frosting and it was more than enough to frost 2 8in round cakes...and plenty for me to enjoy along the way. Very good recipe...Thanks!
