German Chocolate Cake Cookies

 Today's new cookie will be a new favorite around our house.  My husband loves German Chocolate Cake and this brings all those flavors together in a cookie. And let's be honest cookies are much easier to make than a three tiered cake.  Give these a try. 

All that chocolaty goodness.  They are so good warm. 

Don't worry about all these ingredients these go together really fast.

Start with 2 sticks softened butter.
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup sugar.  Mix the butter and sugars well until nice and fluffy.
Add 2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla. Mix well
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa.  Mix well and slow.  Don't ask how I know to start the mixer slow.
Add 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour.  Add a little at a time.  I forgot the picture for 1 teaspoon baking soda and a pinch of salt.
All that chocolate is well mixed.
Add 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips.  I chose to use the mini chips.  
1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
1 cup chopped pecans
This dough is full of good things. 
These are my test cookies.  Place them in a preheated 375 oven.  Bake for 8-10 minutes.
These are going in the freezer for later.
We enjoyed these the day I made them and look forward to enjoying more during the holidays.
