German Chocolate Sandwich Cookies

A whole German Chocolate Cake is too much work. Just make these wonderful German Chocolate Cookie Sandwiches

Ingredients

• 1 Box of German chocolate cake mix 
• 1/4 Cup (60 ml) Vegetable olive oil 
• 1 egg
• 1/4 Cup (34 g) flour for dusting
• Can of Coconut Pecan Frosting
• Extra pecan and/or coconut to add to the Can of Coconut Pecan Frosting as desired

Supplies

•  Mixing Bowl
• Large spoon
• Rolling pin (or tall drinking glass)
• A round cookie cutter (or a drinking glass)
• Parchment paper (or butter/margarine)
• Spatula
• Oven Mitt (or kitchen towel)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 176 degrees Celsius

Step 2: In a mixing bowl, stir together your cake mix, egg and vegetable oil until all ingredients are combined to form a dough. You may need to use your (greased) hands to bring the dough together. Add a little bit of flour at a time if the dough is too sticky.

Step 2: Sprinkle counter and rolling pin (drinking glass if you don't have a rolling pin) with flour. Place dough on floured counter and roll out to about 1/4" (6 mm) thickness. Cut out cookies with round cookie cutter (round drinking glass if you don't have a cookie cutter).

Place cutout cookie dough on parchment paper (or butter/margarine) lined cookie sheet. Place on middle rack of oven. Bake for 10 minutes.

While cookies are baking, open up the can of coconut pecan frosting and spoon into a clean mixing bowl and stir. If desired, add additional coconut and/or pecans.

Remove cookies from oven with an oven mitt and let cookies cool.

Once cookies have cooled down, move half the cookies onto a plate with a spatula. Scoop a dollop of Coconut Pecan Frosting on each cookie. Place the remaining half of the cookies on top of each dollop of frosting. Enjoy these delicious German Chocolate Sandwich Cookies!!
