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.

[email protected]I loved these cookies! They were so chewy and chocolatey. The frosting was the perfect complement to the cookies. I will definitely be making these again soon.

[email protected]These cookies were okay. They weren't as good as I thought they would be. The frosting was a bit too thick and the cookies were a bit too dry.

[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

[email protected]These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would cut the sugar in the frosting by half next time. Other than that, they were good.

[email protected]I've made these cookies several times and they are always a hit. They're perfect for parties or potlucks. The only thing I would change is to add a little bit more salt to the dough. Other than that, they're perfect!

[email protected]These cookies were easy to make and tasted great. I used a different brand of chocolate chips than the recipe called for, but they still turned out well. The cookies were chewy and the frosting was creamy and chocolatey.

[email protected]I was a bit skeptical about this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of coconut. But I decided to give it a try and I'm so glad I did! The coconut flavor is subtle and it pairs perfectly with the chocolate frosting. These cookies are delicious!

[email protected]I made these German chocolate sandwich cookies last weekend and they were a hit! They were so easy to make and turned out perfectly. The cookies were chewy and the frosting was rich and chocolatey. My family loved them, they disappeared quickly!
