My all time favorite birthday cake is German Chocolate Cake
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces German sweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup water
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
4 large eggs, separated
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2-1/2 cups cake flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
FROSTING:
1-1/2 cups sugar
1-1/2 cups evaporated milk
3/4 cup butter
5 large egg yolks, beaten
2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
1-1/2 cups chopped pecans
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
ICING:
1 teaspoon shortening
2 ounces semisweet chocolate
DIRECTIONS
1. Line three greased 9-in. round baking pans with waxed paper. Grease
waxed paper and set aside. In small saucepan, melt chocolate with water
over low heat; cool.
2. Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light
and fluffy. Beat in 4 egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each
addition. Blend in melted chocolate and vanilla. Combine flour, baking
soda and salt; add to the creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk,
beating well after each addition.
3. In a small bowl and with clean beaters, beat the 4 egg whites until stiff
peaks form. Fold a fourth of the egg whites into creamed mixture; fold in
remaining whites.
4. Pour batter into prepared pans. Bake 24-28 minutes or until a toothpick
inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes before removing
from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
5. For frosting, in a small saucepan, heat sugar, milk, butter and egg yolks
over medium-low heat until mixture is thickened and golden brown,
stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in coconut, pecans and vanilla
extract. Cool until thick enough to spread. Spread a third of the frosting
over each cake layer and stack the layers.
6. In a microwave, melt chocolate and shortening; stir until smooth. Drizzle
over cake. Yield: 12 servings.

The best Birthday cake is my favorite Tiramisu Toffee cake , try it and you would love it too !
Ingredients :
1 package (18-1/4 ounces) white cake mix
1 cup strong brewed coffee, room temperature
4 egg whites
4 Heath candy bars (1.4 ounces each), chopped
For the frosting :
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup chocolate syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups whipping cream
6 tablespoons strong brewed coffee, room temperature
1 candy bar of your choice (1.4 ounces), chopped
Preparations :
Line two greased 9-in. round baking pans with waxed paper and grease the paper; set aside. In a mixing bowl, beat the cake mix, coffee and egg whites on low speed until moistened. Beat on high for 2 minutes. Fold in chopped candy bars. Pour into prepared pans.
Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. When cool, split each cake into two horizontal layers.
For frosting, in a chilled mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in chocolate syrup and vanilla. Add the whipping cream. Beat on high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
Place one cake layer on a serving plate; drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the coffee. Spread with 3/4 cup frosting. Repeat twice. Top with fourth cake layer. Frost top and sides of cake with remaining frosting. Refrigerate overnight. Garnish with chopped candy bar. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 12-14 servings
Enjoy !!
