Everything you love about German Chocolate Cake in cookie form!

This is a recipe from deep in the C&C cookie archives.  I absolutely adore this cookie…chocolate, coconut, pecans… there’s so much to love.  Not to mention the fact that my kids won’t touch them, so I can put most of the batch in the freezer and enjoy them here and there.  Love, love, love.

This simple cookie recipe doesn’t require any chilling of the dough, which I also love…no waiting around for fresh cookies.  The chocolate cookie base is studded with chocolate chips, shredded coconut and chopped pecans.  A real treat for those of us that love German Chocolate Cake, but only make it about once a year!

Are you a fan of the flavors in traditional German Chocolate Cake?  Then you’d also love German Chocolate Apple Dip – so good!!
