These bars are a little bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

I'm not sure why these bars are called German chocolate bars. They don't have anything to do with Germany.

I've made these bars a few times now and they're always a hit. They're the perfect dessert to bring to a party or potluck.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover pretzels. I always have a bag of pretzels in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them for.

I'm not a big fan of pretzels, but I actually really liked these bars. The combination of flavors and textures is really unique.

These bars are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would cut the amount of sugar in the chocolate mixture by half next time.

I love the way the coconut flakes add a little bit of texture to these bars. It's a nice contrast to the smooth chocolate and crunchy pretzels.

These bars are perfect for any occasion. I've made them for parties, potlucks, and even just for a snack at home. They're always a hit.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to add a little bit more salt to the pretzel crust. I found it to be a little bit bland.

These bars are so easy to make. I love that I can just press the pretzel crust into the pan and then pour the chocolate mixture on top. No need to roll out any dough.

I love the way the pretzels add a salty crunch to these bars. It's the perfect balance to the sweetness of the chocolate and coconut.
