Ingredients

Brownies
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons butter salted
  • 2 Tablespoons water
  • 1 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet
  • 2 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet
Caramel Topping
  • 30 caramels unwrapped (I use Kraft brand)
  • 1/4 cup butter salted
  • 2 Tablespoons heavy cream
Topping
  • 1/2 cup coconut toasted
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (I used half milk and half semi-sweet)

Instructions

Brownie Layer
    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat oven to 350°F. Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper and then spray paper with cooking spray.
  2. Combine the granulated sugar, butter and water in medium saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture boils. Remove from heat and immediately stir in the 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips until melted.
  3. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until blended. Add flour and baking soda, mix just until combined. Stir in the 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips. Spread batter into the prepared pan.
  4. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Caramel Layer
  1. While the brownies are baking, prepare the caramel layer by combining caramels, butter and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute then stir. Microwave an additional 1 to 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, or until caramels are melted and mixture is smooth when stirred.
  2. Immediately pour caramel topping over the brownies and carefully spread out evenly. Sprinkle the top evenly with the toasted coconut and chocolate chips. Allow the brownies to cool completely. Cut, serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • My favorite way to toast coconut is to put it in a large skillet and cook it on the stovetop over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, cook it until it's golden brown (about 4-5 minutes). Another way is to heat the oven to 350°F and spread coconut evenly on a cookie sheet. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes or until light golden brown, stirring occasionally
