Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Base
- 1 box brownie mix (prepared according to the package directions)
Toppings
- 2 cups shredded coconut
- 16 ounce bottle caramel ice cream topping
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted)
Instructions
- Toast the Coconut: After baking the brownies according to the package instructions and while the oven is still on, spread the shredded coconut on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the sheet in the oven and toast the coconut, stirring frequently to ensure even browning, for about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove once golden and fragrant.
- Cool the Coconut: Allow the toasted coconut to cool slightly so it doesn’t melt the caramel in the next step.
- Mix Coconut and Caramel: Pour the caramel ice cream topping over the toasted coconut and stir well until the coconut is evenly coated with caramel.
- Layer over Brownies: Evenly spoon and spread the caramel-coconut mixture over the baked brownies, creating a thick, sticky layer.
- Drizzle with Chocolate: Transfer the melted semi-sweet chocolate chips into a piping bag or a plastic bag with a small corner cut off, then drizzle the chocolate decoratively over the caramel layer.
- Chill to Set: Place the assembled brownies in the refrigerator and chill until fully cooled and the toppings are set, about 1 to 2 hours.
- Slice and Serve: Once chilled, cut the brownies into squares and serve. Enjoy the rich layers of chocolate, caramel, and toasted coconut in each bite.
Notes
- Use sweetened shredded coconut for the best flavor and texture.
- Be careful to watch the coconut closely as it toasts quickly and can burn easily.
- For easier chocolate drizzle, melt the chips slowly in a microwave or double boiler until smooth.
- If you prefer a firmer caramel layer, refrigerate the brownies overnight before slicing.
- These brownies keep well stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
