German Chocolate Cake - Kuchen

In fact, it is a simple chocolate / cocoa cake, the German origin being called "kuchen". I really liked the recipe because it is made simple, fast and from handy products, I prepared the recipe in the country, where it is harder for me to adapt to my mother's conditions and cuisine - but how simple it is to prepare the whole process was really perfect.

It is so soft, tender and fluffy, the soft and fragrant glaze gives it a very good note, I was a little skeptical here but I really had no reason.
