FABULOUSLY EASY COCONUT BROWNIES
Super easy, these brownies draw raves as if I were baking all day. I like to make these, regular brownies and cream cheese brownies at the same time and serve a variety plate. (I found this recipe online somewhere in the last few years, not sure of the original source.)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350. Spray 9X13X2 pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Prepare your favorite brownie mix according to package directions for cakelike brownies. The amount of eggs, oil and water in the ingredients above are common to most prepared brownie mix instructions (for cakelike brownies), but follow your box exactly.
- Spread the brownie mix evenly in pan. Bake 16-18 min or until brownie is set. Do not overbake! You are just trying to set the batter, not finish it.
- Layer coconut and chocolate chunks over brownie base.
- Pour sweetened condensed milk evenly over coconut and chocolate chunks.
- Sprinkle with nuts.
- Bake 20-30 minutes or until edges of coconut are deep golden brown and nuts are lightly toasted.
- Cool completely. Cut into bars. Step back and hear the applause.
TOASTED COCONUT BROWNIES
Steps:
- For the brownies: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a 13-by-9-inch baking dish with parchment, overhanging the edges by about 2 inches. Coat the parchment lightly with butter.
- Melt the butter and chocolate chips together in a large heat-proof bowl set over simmering water, then remove from the heat.
- With an electric mixer on low speed, mix the sugars into the chocolate mixture, then beat in the eggs on medium speed, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Beat in the extracts.
- Mix in the flour on low speed until just combined. Fold in the coconut and nuts, if using, by hand. Fold in the salt.
- Spread the mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool completely on a rack before frosting.
- For the frosting: Meanwhile, spread the coconut flakes on a baking sheet and bake, stirring once or twice, until lightly toasted, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
- Combine the butter and extracts in a large bowl and beat on medium-high until light, about 1 minute. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat on low until combined, then beat on high until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Beat in the milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the frosting is easily spreadable.
- Use the parchment overhang to remove the brownies from the baking dish in one piece. Spread the frosting on the brownies and sprinkle with the toasted coconut. Cut into bars to serve. The brownies can be made up to a day ahead and refrigerated in the baking dish.
COCONUT FLOUR BROWNIES
