Samoas Brownies Recipe
Ingredients:
Brownies
1/2 cup sweet cream unsalted butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
8 oz quality dark chocolate (like Ghirardelli), coarsely chopped
1/4 cup and 1 Tbsp light brown sugar, packed
3 large eggs
1 egg white
1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup and 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2 1/2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 tsp sea salt
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Coconut Topping
2 cup sweetened shredded coconut
20 – 25 candy caramel squares
3 Tbsp heavy cream
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
Start this recipe by making the brownies. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and pull out a stock pot.
Over medium heat, melt your butter in the stock pot. Once it is melted, slowly add in and mix your chopped dark chocolate. Stir until smooth. Add in your white and brown sugar and stir until mixed well.
Add all of your eggs and egg white and stir in completely one at a time. Stir in your pure vanilla extract until fully incorporated. Mix in your flour and cocoa powder and stir. It will be hard to see whether the cocoa powder is being stirred in completely, but stir both until the flour is completely mixed in and you will be fine for both.
Add your sea salt and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Stir until both are mixed in completely.
Pour your batter into a 9″x9″ baking pan (using either non-stick spray or lined in foil) and bake for 35 to 38 minutes or until a toothpick (inserted in the middle) comes out clean. Set to the side to cool.
Now let’s make the topping. Set your oven to broil. Take a cookie sheet and spread the shredded coconut out evenly. Place it in oven and toast the coconut until it is golden brown (not burnt). It only takes a few minutes so don’t walk away from the oven!
When it’s finished, remove the cookie sheet from oven and put your coconut on a plate or in a bowl so that it doesn’t cook any further.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, slowly melt your caramel squares and add heavy cream in slowly while stirring. Continue to stir until the caramel is melted and smooth. Starting with a little at a time, add the toasted coconut into the melted caramel mixture.
If your brownies are cool enough (you don’t want them to be piping hot), spread the caramel mixture over the brownies. If you should choose, you can also melt another 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips (in the microwave in 30 second intervals and stir in between) and drizzle lines on top of the caramel topping.
