Ingredients
Scale
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
- Prepare Brownies: Cook the brownies according to the package directions and set aside, keeping the oven on for the next step.
- 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 frequently to ensure even browning. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Cool Coconut: Remove the toasted coconut from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before handling.
- Combine Topping: In a mixing bowl, stir the caramel ice cream topping into the toasted coconut until thoroughly combined.
- Top Brownies: Evenly spread the coconut and caramel mixture over the cooled brownies, creating a generous layer.
- Drizzle Chocolate: Transfer the melted semi-sweet chocolate chips into a piping bag or a resealable plastic bag with a snipped corner. Drizzle the chocolate decoratively over the coconut layer on the brownies.
- Chill: Place the brownies in the refrigerator and chill until the chocolate sets and the dessert is cool, about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Serve: Slice into squares and serve chilled or at room temperature for a rich, chewy treat.
Notes
- Be vigilant when toasting the coconut as it can burn easily; stir often for even color.
- If you don’t have a piping bag, use a zip-top plastic bag with a small corner cut off for drizzling chocolate.
- For extra texture, you can sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts on top along with the caramel coconut mixture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Allow brownies to come to room temperature before serving if you prefer a softer bite.
