A bakery catered my little sister wedding luncheon and they had these delicious German chocolate cake style cookies. I decided to make up a recipe for them, meaning I changed up some other recipes to make it work. They turned out great! If you like German Chocolate cake you will love these!
Cookies:
2 c brown sugar
1/2 c shortening
1/2 c butter
3/4 c cocoa
4 c firmly packed flour
3 eggs
1 c milk
1 t baking soda
1/4 t salt
Cream the shortening, butter and sugar. Add the cocoa, mix. Then add the eggs and milk, mix. Slowly add flour, baking soda, and salt, mix. Place tablespoon size dough on a GREASED cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Cool.
Frosting:
1 c evaporated milk
3 egg yolks
1 c sugar
1/2 c butter
1 t vanilla
1 c chopped pecans
1 c coconut
Mix evaporated milk, egg yolks, sugar and butter. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes in a pot, on the stove over medium heat. Stir often so it doesn't burn on the bottom. After the 10 to 15 minutes, then the rest of the ingredients. Spread on cooled cookies.
