I added nuts and coconut to the cookies and omitted the frosting and they came out very good. I also used butter instead of shortening. Next time I'll make them I'll cut down on the sugar and leave out the coconut though, because they are just a bit too sweet for me. They are delicious though!

While the overall taste of this cookie is pretty good, the texture was crumbly and the addition of the icing was messy. If I make them again, I will probably use actual German Chocolate Cake icing. My husband loves German Chocolate Cake so he enjoyed this cookie but I'll stick to making the cake for now.

My husband LOVED these but we thought they were too sweet. I'll definitely cut way down on the sugar in the cookie part next time. the frosting is fine, just don't overcook it, it'll taste like custard if you do.

This Cookie was very good, but it was too sweet. Next time I would leave out a little sugr in the cookie section of the recipe because the frosting was sweet also. The frosting for this cookie was a horrible recipe I found a much better one: Coconut pecan filling or frosting

Great cookies - very rich and chocolatey. Make sure cookies are completely cooled before icing or they break apart.

My mother loves German Chocolate cake. I think she likes these cookies even more! I can't wait to make another batch. These cookies impressed my brother who is critical of everything. All the cookies were gone in two days. Make sure to let the icing cook awhile and if it seems runny, add more sugar. I definitely will make these again.
