These German chocolate cookie bars are perfectly chewy with a crunchy, yet gooey coconut frosting topping. They are heavenly and SO EASY to make! No joke, I’ve probably made these at least 5 times since the beginning of the year! They are THAT good. Oh, and did I mention they are super EASY to make? I almost always have all the ingredients on hand, so I make these whenever I have a sweet tooth but don’t want to make a trip to the store.
How to Make German Chocolate Cookie Bars
2 cups cake flour (all purpose flour will work fine if you don’t have cake flour) 1 ½ cups sugar 2 tablespoons cocoa powder (or to taste) 1 teaspoon baking powder ½ teaspoon salt
Combine all ingredients together in a large bowl. Stir well and use this cake mixture in place of the box cake mix.
Make sure the bars are cooled completely before storing. Store the bars in an airtight container or Ziplock bag at room temperature for 3-4 days. You can also pop them in the refrigerator where they’ll stay fresh for about a week. Freeze leftovers too! Wrap the bars tightly in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container for a couple of months. If you’re freezing more than one layer, place a piece of parchment paper in between the layers of brownies so they don’t stick together. Thaw in the refrigerator or on the counter until they’re room temperature.
