Description

Delight in these Samoa Brownies, a decadent treat combining rich, fudgy brownies with toasted coconut, luscious caramel, and a drizzle of melted semi-sweet chocolate. Inspired by the flavors of the popular Samoa cookie, this recipe makes a crowd-pleasing dessert perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Brownie Base

  • 1 box brownie mix (prepared according to the package directions)

Topping

  • 2 cups shredded coconut
  • 16 ounce bottle caramel ice cream topping
  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Brownies: Follow the package instructions on the brownie mix to prepare and bake the brownies. Once baked, leave the oven on for toasting the coconut.
  2. Toast Coconut: Spread shredded coconut evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place in the oven and toast, stirring frequently, for about 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown and fragrant. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
  3. Combine Coconut and Caramel: In a bowl, mix the toasted coconut with the caramel ice cream topping until well combined.
  4. Spread Topping on Brownies: Evenly spoon the coconut and caramel mixture over the cooled brownies, creating a smooth layer.
  5. Drizzle Chocolate: Transfer the melted semi-sweet chocolate chips into a piping bag or a plastic bag with a snipped corner, then drizzle over the top of the coconut layer in decorative patterns.
  6. Chill Brownies: Refrigerate the assembled brownies until the caramel and chocolate firm up and the brownies are completely cooled, typically about 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Notes

  • Be careful not to burn the coconut when toasting—it can go from golden to burnt quickly.
  • Use good-quality caramel sauce for the best flavor and texture.
  • Melt chocolate chips gently in short bursts in the microwave or over a double boiler to avoid seizing.
  • Refrigerate brownies to keep the topping firm and easy to cut.
  • These brownies can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
