A lady who lived in Graceville, FL used to make them and they were very popular, and delicious. She passed away and we’re trying to see if anybody else knows the recipe. The cake is basically a yellow cake. The icing has a caramel taste with coconut and pecans. It is not the German Chocolate icing, but similar. Thanks for any help! Carolyn

Hi Carolyn,
Ok. Let me know. I cannot find any mention at all of a "Cozart Cake", as such, and I can't see any way to proceed without the lady's name.

Hi Carolyn,
I think it was Ella Ludean Helms, husband Joe Helms.
You say someone posted a recipe? What is the address of that web page? I'd like to look at it.
