German Chocolate Blob

So I made my second cake yesterday for my Grandma's 87th birthday. I used this recipe. Of course after I was already mixing the ingredients together I realized that my roommate had used nearly all of my sugar, so I had to substitute most of the refined sugar with turbinado sugar which definitely tasted a little different. To sweeten my fresh coconut I tossed it with powdered sugar because I was too lazy to boil and evaporate sugar (oh wait I didn't have any anyway). Also, I attempted to move the cake without letting it cool completely and so it kind of broke... a lot. I covered most of the mess up with icing. It tasted just fine and all the omnivores at the birthday party liked it. My grandma was also happy because she is diabetic and the lack of refined sugar made it a little bit more acceptable for her to eat. :)
