COCONUT MACAROON BROWNIES



Coconut Macaroon Brownies image

Chocolate and coconut are a perfect combination, one that can be reimagined in myriad ways, be it a coconut-filled candy bar or macaroons drizzled with bittersweet chocolate. Here, the two star in a pan of chewy brownies, with mounds of sweetened condensed milk-bathed coconut crowning the top. Half cookie, half candy, they're over the top in the very best way. This recipe calls for an 8-inch square pan, but, if you only have a 9-inch square pan, shave a few minutes off the baking time.

Time 1h

Yield 16 brownies

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), plus more for greasing the pan
4 ounces/115 grams unsweetened chocolate, coarsely chopped or broken up
1 1/4 cups/250 grams granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 cup/65 grams all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 cup/45 grams mini or regular chocolate chips (optional)
2 cups/170 grams sweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup/120 milliliters sweetened condensed milk
1 egg white
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of fine sea salt
Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter an 8-inch square metal baking pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving about 2 inches of excess on each side to help you lift the cooked brownies out of the pan.
  • Make the brownies: Put butter and chocolate into a medium pot and place it over low heat. Melt the mixture, taking care not to let the chocolate burn and stirring constantly with a rubber spatula until smooth. Scrape chocolate mixture into a large bowl and mix in the sugar. Let mixture cool until it's just warm to the touch, about 5 minutes.
  • Whisk eggs into cooled chocolate mixture. Whisk in flour, cocoa powder, vanilla and salt. Mix in chocolate chips, if using. Scrape batter into prepared pan and smooth it into an even layer. Set aside.
  • Make the coconut mounds: In a medium bowl, combine shredded coconut, condensed milk, egg white, vanilla and fine sea salt. Using a rubber spatula, mix until well combined. Using a small ice cream scoop or a tablespoon, drop 16 evenly spaced mounds of the coconut mixture, in 4 by 4 rows, onto the brownie batter.
  • Sprinkle top lightly with flaky sea salt. Bake until the coconut mounds are golden brown and the brownie top is set and firm to touch, especially in the center, 25 to 35 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into 16 squares.

COCONUT MACAROON BROWNIES



Coconut Macaroon Brownies image

The brownie base falls into the middle category of cakey and fudgey. The top part is good enough to eat on its own, but is the perfect compliment to the brownie.

Steps:

  • 1. ingredients/Brownie Base 1 cup flour 2 tbs cocoa powder 2 cups sugar 1/4 tsp salt 2 tsp vanilla extract 1 cup or 2 sticks of butter 4 oz unsweetened chocolate 6 large eggs, room temp Ingredients/Macaroon Layer 1/2 cup sugar 3 cups unsweetened or desiccated coconut 1 tsp vanilla extract 1/4 tsp salt 6 large egg whites, room temp 3 tbs butter, melted and cooled 1/3 cup light corn syrup Grease a 9X13 inch pan or line the pan with foil. To make the brownie layer, prepare a double boiler with water and place over medium heat. Put butter and chocolate in top pan to melt. Stir mixture about every 3 minutes until it all is melted and smooth. Remove pan and set aside. in another bowl, whisk the eggs and vanilla together until completely blended. Then pour in the chocolate mixture in three increments, whisking after each addition. Stir in the salt. Add the flour, cocoa powder and sugar and mix with a wooden spoon until batter is thick and smooth. Pour batter into prepared pan and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. To make the topping, whisk the egg whites until a little froth forms. Then combine the corn syrup, vanilla and butter into the egg whites. Mix in the salt and then the sugar. Once all is combined fold in the coconut until evenly distributed. Using a spoon, drop large scoops of macaroon mixture onto batter. The scoop should be about 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons and the mixture should be placed in 3 rows of 5 on top of the brownie batter. Then take a knife and cut an "X" into each mound. This will help each mound bake and bond together to cover the top of the brownie batter. The recipe states bake in oven for about 40 minutes, however I left mine in for about 50 minutes. Getting the center cooked in such a large pan is tricky for me when it comes to bars. Brownies are done when the center is firm to the touch. Let brownies cool completely in pan placed on a rack.

COCONUT MACAROON TOPPED BROWNIES RECIPE - (4.2/5)



Coconut Macaroon Topped Brownies Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by HotDishHomemaker

Number Of Ingredients 5

◾1 Box Duncan Hines Family Size Fudge Brownie Mix, prepare as directed on package
◾1 (14 oz.) Package Sweetened Flaked Coconut
◾1 (14 oz.) Can Sweetened Condensed Milk
◾1 Teaspoon Vanilla
◾2 Ounces Semi Sweet Baking Chocolate

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare Brownie Mix according to package directions for "cake like" Brownies in a 9 x 13 pan. Bake the Brownies for 25 minutes. We don't want the Brownies to be completely done, but close. I would check them at the 18 and 20 minute mark by inserting a toothpick in the center and look for it to be almost clean. That is a good indication that they are almost done so take them out of the oven. Once we put the topping on top, we are going to bake them again and that is why we don't want them completely done at this point. 2. Time to make the topping. While the Brownies are baking, in a medium size bowl, stir together the Coconut, Vanilla and the Sweetened Condensed Milk. Set aside. 3. When the Brownies are nearly done, take them out of the oven and then spread the topping evenly over the top. Return the Brownies to the oven and bake for 15 additional minutes. 4. Remove Brownies from oven and allow to cool completely. 5. Melt the Chocolate according to package directions. Then drizzle it over the top of the cooled Coconut Macaroon Brownies. I usually just use a spoon and dip the end in the Chocolate then randomly squiggle the Chocolate all over the top. 6. Cut the Brownies into 2 inch pieces and you are ready to serve!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality, unsweetened coconut for the best flavor and texture.
  • Toast the coconut before using it to enhance its flavor.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in tough brownies.
  • For fudgier brownies, use less flour and more butter.
  • For chewier brownies, use more flour and less butter.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them, as this will help prevent them from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Coconut macaroon brownies are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are fudgy, chewy, and full of coconut flavor. With their simple ingredients and straightforward instructions, these brownies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. Whether you are a seasoned baker or a beginner, give this recipe a try and enjoy the delicious results!
