Cookie # 6 German Chocolate Cookies

I am not a fan of German Chocolate cake but it is my brother's favorite cake so I thought I would try it in a cookie and see if I could get good results. Wow! these turned out really great.

The cookie: Preheat oven to 350〬

1 box Duncan Hines® Moist Deluxe® Swiss Chocolate Mix

1/3 cup milk

1 egg

1/4 cup butter, softened

8 oz semisweet chocolate chips

1 cup chopped pecans (walnuts are another option)

Mix the first 4 ingredients together in a mixer. Stir in chocolate chips and pecans. Drop by tsp onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Cool completely on wire rack.

The Frosting:

2/3 cup granulated sugar

2/3 cup evaporated milk (smallest can they make)

2 egg yokes

1/3 cup butter

1 1/2 cup flaked coconut

1 cup chopped pecans

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Combine sugar, evaporated milk, egg yokes and butter in a medium sauce pan. Cook and stir on medium heat until it comes to a boil. Remove from heat and immediately add coconut, pecans and vanilla. Continuing to stir until thick, once cool spread on cooled cookies.
