Mom's Favorite German Chocolate Cookies

LauraLaura

A yummy chewy chocolaty gem of a cookie! Best to eat 10 minutes out of the oven!

ingredients

  • 2 packages (4 oz) German chocolate
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsifted flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans

directions

  • 1

    Melt chocolate and butter in bowl over hot water. Remove from heat and cool. Beat eggs until foamy. Add sugar 2 tablespoons at a time. Blend in melted chocolate, flour, cinnamon, baking powder, salt and pecans.

  • 2

    Drop by tablespoon on greased cookie sheets or parchment. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in a 350 degree oven.

  • 3

    Cookies will rise and drop before being finished. They spread, so don’t put too close together.

  • 4

    The batter is close to brownie batter. If you feel it is too thin add flour a tablespoon at a time.

notes

Best to make and eat these cookies within a few days. They tend to loose their chewy wonderfulness after that.
