German Chocolate Cakes Origins
A 1955 article called County Cook's Corner described a German chocolate cake recipe provided by a woman named Sarah Liu. The main difference is that her icing called for more than double the amount of cocoa. A woman in St. Louis wrote that 30 years ago, as a bride, she was given a very similar recipe by her mother-in-law. She discontinued baking the cake during the depression because it was too expensive.
Both of these eponymous foods feature chocolate, but they also both feature some issues with timelines and attribution that need to be unraveled.
