1- Mix sugar, butter, milk and egg yolks in 2-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat about 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thick.
2- Stir in coconut, pecans and vanilla. Cool about 30 minutes, beating occasionally with spoon, until spreadable.
**Generously frosts a 13 x 9-inch cake, or fills and frosts an 8- or 9-inch two- or three-layer cake.**
Betty's Tip: Though this filling is traditionally used for German chocolate cake, it is also delicious on other cakes, including your favorite chocolate or white cake. Frost layer cakes only between the layers and on top, leaving the sides unfrosted.
