I made them Saturday and they are delicious. Very good chewy
cookie.
Thumbprint Cookies
Topping:
1 c. sugar
1 c. evaporated milk
1/2 c. butter, softened
1 tsp. vanilla
3 egg yolks, beaten
1 1/2 c. coconut
1 1/2 c. chopped pecans
Cookies:
1 pkg. German chocolate cake mix
1/3 c. melted butter
In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar, milk, 1/2 cup butter,
vanilla and egg yolks. Blend well. Cook over medium heat for
10-13 minutes or until thickened and bubbly. Stir
frequently. Stir in coconut and pecans.
Remove from heat. Cool at room temperature. Reserve 1 1/4
cups topping mixture. Set aside. Combine cookie ingredients
and remaining topping mixture. Stir by hand until thoroughly
moistened.
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Shape cookie dough into balls.
Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. With your
thumb, make an indentation in the middle of each ball and
fill each indentation with 1/2 teaspoon of reserved topping
mixture. Bake for 10-13 minutes. Makes 5 dozen cookies.
