1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Beat until well combined, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Beat in egg and vanilla until combined. Beat in flour. Stir in rolled oats, flax seed meal, and cocoa powder. Stir in chopped chocolate, coconut, and pecans (dough will be thick).
2. Drop dough by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. If desired, sprinkle tops with additional chopped pecans and flaked coconut. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are just firm and tops are set. Let cookies cool on cookie sheet for 1 minute. Transfer cookies to wire racks to cool. Makes about 35 cookies.
Storage: Store cookies for 2 days at room temperature or freeze for up to 3 months.

Really amazing cookies. Finally a cookie that looks as good as the picture! Rich with chocolate, and oatmeal these cookies are great for any occasion. Just leave them on the pan to cool for a while or they will mush up because they haven't had enough time to harden.
1/21/2010 09:02:47 PM Report AbuseWe made these as one of our Christmas Cookies this year (2009). Very rich and flavorful but not too sweet, a very mocha taste. Young kids did not like them but the adults all loved them. Not very difficult to make either, be sure to ready your toasted pecans ahead of time so you do not have to toast them halfway through the recipe like I did.
1/3/2010 12:20:16 PM Report AbuseI thought that I had some flax seed meal, but midway into the recipe I find that I don't. Is there an alternative that I might use? I've searched the net for a suggestion and come up with nothing.
12/24/2009 05:39:20 PM Report AbuseThese are some of the best cookies I've ever made- they are just like a rich chocolate brownie- I used semi-sweet "Bakers" chocolate made a heaping Tablespoon - rounded into balls and baked them for 11 & 1/2 minutes- exactly as they say til firm on the outside edges and tops are set- perfection in a cookie- crusty on the outside like a brownie and gooey in the middle. This recipe is a keeper!
