Spread half of the coconut pecan frosting over the bottom layer of graham crackers. Add half of the chocolate mousse to the top of the frosting and then add another layer of chocolate graham crackers.

Repeat the steps again layering German Chocolate Frosting and the last half of the mousse. Top with a final layer of chocolate graham crackers.

Add whipping cream and sugar to a large mixing bowl. Beat on medium-high until stiff peaks form. Spread over graham crackers.Top the cake with toasted coconut and chopped pecans.

Cover with plastic wrap or foil & place in fridge for 2-3 hours to chill and allow mousse to set. Serve with caramel sauce drizzled over slices. Enjoy!
