CHOCOLATE-CARAMEL-COCONUT CAKE
OK ... this recipe had me at Samoa. They are one of my favorite cookies, so I had pretty high expectations for this cake. It DOES taste like the cookie. So moist and yummy I found myself going back for just one more bite ... over and over.

DARK GERMAN CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH TOASTED ALMOND-COCONUT GOO
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Spread the coconut and almonds on separate baking sheets and toast, stirring occasionally, just until golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Line the bottom and sides of a 14 by 17-inch baking sheet (with sides) with parchment or waxed paper. Sift together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Transfer to a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or use a hand mixer) and blend briefly.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, oil and vanilla extract. Add to the dry ingredients and mix at low speed for 5 minutes. Gradually add the hot water, mixing at low speed just until combined. The batter will be quite thin. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until a tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean (a few crumbs are okay), 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool in the pan.
- Caramel: Pour the sugar into the center of a deep saucepan. Carefully pour the water around the sugar, trying not to splash any sugar onto the sides of the pan. Do not stir; gently draw your finger through the center of the sugar to moisten it. Over medium-high heat, bring to a boil without stirring. Reduce the heat to a fast simmer and cook without stirring until amber-caramel in color, 10 to 20 minutes. Immediately remove from the heat. Using a wooden spoon, slowly and carefully stir in the cream (it will bubble up and may splatter). Stir in the toasted coconut and almonds. Set aside.
- When ready to serve, cut the room-temperature cake in the pan into 6 even strips, each 3 inches wide. Using diagonal strokes of the knife, cut each strip into 4 triangles. If the sauce has stiffened, rewarm it over low heat (or in a microwave) until softened. Place a triangle on each plate, drizzle with sauce, and rest another triangle on top at a different angle. Drizzle with more sauce and serve.

- To make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease two 8” round pans; make sure they’re at least 2” deep. Divide the batter evenly between the two pans and bake the cakes for 35 to 38 minutes, until they test done.
- Turn the cakes out of the pans onto a rack to cool completely while you continue with the recipe.
- To make the syrup: Combine the sugar and water in a microwave-safe measuring cup and heat for 90 seconds at high power; or heat the mixture in a small saucepan set over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then add the rum. Set aside to cool.
- To prepare the cake: Cut a small vertical notch in the sides of the two cake layers. (Since you’ll be cutting each layer in half to make a total of four layers, the notches will help you line them back up when it's time to assemble the cake.)
