Samoa Brownies Ingredients
- 18 oz. box of your favorite box brownie mix and the ingredients on the back
- 2 ½ c. of shredded coconut
- 14 oz. jar of caramel (¼ c. set aside)
- 1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips

How to Make Samoa Brownies
- Preheat the oven according to the brownie mix package directions for an 8×8-inch pan. Line the pan with parchment paper.
- Prepare the brownie batter according to the package directions. Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 35–45 minutes, or as directed on the box. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs. Let the brownies cool for about 35 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toast the coconut in a medium skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently until golden brown. Transfer to a medium bowl.
- Add the caramel to the toasted coconut, reserving ¼ cup for the topping. Stir until well combined, then spread the mixture evenly over the cooled brownies.
- Microwave the chocolate for about 30 seconds, stirring until smooth. Transfer it to a zip-top bag, snip a small corner, and drizzle it over the brownies.
- Place the reserved caramel in another zip-top bag, snip the corner, and drizzle it over the brownies in the opposite direction.
- Refrigerate for 1 hour, or freeze for 30 minutes, until set. Slice into squares and serve.
