  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup evaporated milk
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 1/2 cups flaked coconut
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
  • Cookie:
  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package German chocolate cake mix
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. In a heavy 2-quart saucepan, combine sugar, milk, 1/2 cup butter, vanilla and egg yolk. Blend well. Cook over medium heat for 10 to 13 minutes or until thickened and bubbly. Stir frequently. Stir in coconut and pecans. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
