Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix cake mix, butter, and eggs well - until a thick cookie dough forms. Make sure there aren’t giant clumps, but do not overmix.
- Roll dough into 23 balls - about 1 1/2” or a little bit bigger than a golf ball.
- Place cookies on baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake 8 minutes, until sides brown.
- Let cool and move to cooling rack to cool completely before icing, about 15 minutes.
- To make caramel pecan icing, add milk, sugar, eggs, butter, and vanilla to a pan and heat over medium heat, stirring often to mix well, until thickened.
- Remove from heat and stir in coconut and pecans.
- Spread out a heaping spoonful over each cookie.
- After cookies are iced, melt chocolate candy in microwave, stirring every 30 seconds to melt.
- Using the back of a spoon or a candy squeeze bottle, drizzle melted chocolate candy over cookies.
- Let set additional 15 minutes.
- Enjoy!
