Delight in these Easy Samoa Brownies, inspired by the popular Girl Scout cookie flavor. These brownies combine a rich, fudgy base with toasted coconut, luscious caramel topping, and a drizzle of melted chocolate for an irresistible treat that’s perfect for any occasion.

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

  1. Prepare Brownies: Cook the brownie mix according to the package directions. Once baked, keep the oven on for the next step.
  2. Toast Coconut: Spread the shredded coconut evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place it in the oven and toast for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently until the coconut is evenly browned and fragrant.
  3. Cool Coconut: Remove the toasted coconut from the oven and allow it to cool slightly to prevent melting the caramel in the next step.
  4. Combine with Caramel: Add the caramel ice cream topping to the cooled toasted coconut and stir thoroughly to combine the two into a sticky, spreadable mixture.
  5. Top Brownies: Spread the caramel-coconut mixture evenly over the baked brownies, covering the entire surface.
  6. Drizzle Chocolate: Transfer the melted semi-sweet chocolate chips into a piping bag with a small snip at the corner. Drizzle the chocolate over the caramel-coconut layer in a decorative pattern.
  7. Chill: Refrigerate the assembled brownies until the caramel and chocolate toppings have set and the brownies are cooled, about 1 to 2 hours.
  8. Serve: Slice into squares and serve chilled or at room temperature for a decadent, chewy treat.

Notes

  • You can substitute coconut ice cream topping if caramel ice cream topping is unavailable.
  • Ensure the coconut is toasted evenly to avoid burnt spots and optimize flavor.
  • For easier cutting, chill the brownies well before slicing.
  • Store brownies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • For a nutty twist, sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts on top before drizzling the chocolate.
