Description

Indulge in the delightful flavors of Easy Samoa Brownies, a scrumptious treat that combines rich chocolate brownies with toasted coconut, luscious caramel, and a drizzle of melted chocolate. This recipe offers a simple way to create a dessert inspired by the beloved Samoa cookies, perfect for satisfying your sweet cravings with an irresistible blend of textures and tastes.


Ingredients

Scale

Brownies

  • 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: Cook the brownies according to the package directions and keep the oven on for the next step.
  2. Toast Coconut: Spread the shredded coconut evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the sheet in the oven and toast the coconut for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often until the coconut is evenly browned.
  3. Cool Coconut: Remove the toasted coconut from the oven and allow it to cool slightly to avoid melting the caramel topping.
  4. Mix Caramel with Coconut: Add the caramel ice cream topping to the toasted coconut and stir well to combine into a sticky mixture.
  5. Spread Topping on Brownies: Evenly spoon the caramel-coconut mixture over the baked brownie base, creating a smooth layer on top.
  6. Drizzle Chocolate: Transfer the melted semi-sweet chocolate chips into a piping bag with a snipped corner, then drizzle the chocolate decoratively over the coconut and caramel layer.
  7. Chill Brownies: Refrigerate the assembled brownies until cool and set, helping the layers to adhere and the chocolate to firm up.
  8. Serve: Slice the brownies into squares and serve chilled for the best texture and flavor experience.

Notes

  • Be attentive while toasting the coconut as it can burn quickly; stir frequently for even browning.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the brownies after chilling to prevent tearing the topping.
  • For a richer chocolate drizzle, use high-quality semi-sweet chocolate chips or bars.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep the caramel and coconut from becoming soggy.
