Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box (about 15.25 oz) German chocolate cake mix
- 0.5 cup (melted) Unsalted butter
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Sweetened shredded coconut
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans
- 0.75 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the German chocolate cake mix, melted butter, and eggs. Stir until a thick batter forms.
Fold in the shredded coconut, chopped pecans, and chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion out the dough into 1.5-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
