Step-by-Step Instructions for Easy German Chocolate Cookies
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Melt the unsalted butter in a large mixing bowl. Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar; stir until well combined.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until the batter is smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture.
- Fold in the chocolate chunks, coconut flakes, and chopped pecans until evenly distributed.
- Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are set with soft, slightly underbaked centers.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Ensure the butter is softened but not melted for the best texture. Don't overmix the dough to keep cookies soft and chewy.
