Did you know that German Chocolate Cake is not actually German? It was named after an American baker named Samuel German who created a new type of dark baking chocolate while working for Baker’s Chocolate Company. In his honor, it was called Baker’s German’s Sweet Chocolate. More than 100 years later, a homemaker in Texas created a recipe that she called “German’s Chocolate Cake” because she used the baking chocolate from Baker’s Chocolate Company, named after Samuel. The Dallas Morning News published that recipe and today, that cake is known as German Chocolate Cake. This recipe was created at the request of the Coronary Health Improvement Program founder, Dr. Hans Diehl, and I am so thankful he suggested it because it was the best-selling cake at the restaurant where I worked. I once made 30 of them for a Physician’s Committee for Responsible Medicine event, and they barely fit in my car.
