German Chocolate Sandwich Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar together with an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth.
• Reduce the speed to low and beat in the flour mixture. Add coconut, chocolate and pecans and mix to just combine.
• Portion the dough in 2 tablespoon scoops and roll them into balls. Place them on parchment-lined baking sheets, at least 2 inches apart. Bake the cookies until dry on top but still soft in the center, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately tap the sheets against a work surface to deflate them slightly. Let the cookies sit on the sheets for 3 minutes, then transfer them to a rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350. Cream butter and sugar together. Add vanilla, milk and eggs and mix. Beat in baking soda. Add cocoa and mix well. Add flour gradually, using mixer. You may need to add last bit of flour stirring by hand, as the batter is very stiff. Stir in pecans.
• 2. Form into 1 1/4 inch balls (I used my 1" cookie scoop and it worked perfect). Put onto ungreased cookie sheet and flatten just slightly using the tips of your fingers.
• 3. Bake 9 minutes. Let sit for about 1 minute then move to cooling rack to cool completely.
• 4. Once cookies are finished, make filling (don't make filling in advance; it's easiest to spread when warm). In medium sauce pan over medium heat, melt butter. Add in brown sugar and corn syrup, stirring constantly until thick and bubbly. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla. Add toated coconut and pecans and stir until well combined.
• 5. Spread filling by tablespoonfuls onto the underside of one cookie, and top with another cookie to make sandwich.
• 6. **TO TOAST COCONUT** Place coconut on a baking sheet and place in 350 oven for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned.

Steps:

• 1. Combine all filling ingredients except coconut and pecans in 2-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 8-10 minutes or until mixture comes to a boil and thickens. Stir in coconut and pecans. Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour. Heat oven to 350°F. Combine 1 1/2 cups sugar and 3/4 cup butter in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add milk, eggs and vanilla; continue beating until well mixed. Add flour, cocoa and baking soda. Beat at low speed until well mixed. Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls, 2 inches apart, onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 9-11 minutes or until top springs back lightly when touched. Cool completely. Spread 1 level tablespoonful filling on flat-side of 1 cookie; top with second cookie, flat-side down. Squeeze together gently. Repeat with remaining cookies.

Steps:

With the machine running, gradually add the flour mixture until just blended. Stir in the chocolate chips. Using a 1-ounce ice cream or cookie scoop, form 12 equal-sized pieces of dough onto each baking sheet. With damp hands, form the dough into balls. Flatten the tops of the dough slightly and bake until the tops of the cookies begin to crack slightly, about 14 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
