Yes, you can use any type of chocolate you prefer for this cake. However, the traditional recipe calls for German sweet chocolate, which has a lower cocoa content and a sweeter taste. Using a different type of chocolate may alter the flavor and texture of the cake.
To prevent the cake from sticking to the pan, make sure to generously grease the bottom and sides of the pan with butter or cooking spray. You can also line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper for easier removal. Let the cake cool for 10-15 minutes before flipping it onto a serving plate.
Yes, you can make the cake ahead of time. Once the cake has cooled, cover it with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cake for up to 1 month. Let the cake thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
Yes, you can omit the nuts from the recipe if desired. You can also substitute the pecans with a different type of nut, such as walnuts or almonds. The cake will still have a delicious caramelized coconut topping without the nuts.
