  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 4 oz semisweet chocolate chips (for ganache)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter and 4 oz of semisweet chocolate chips in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth.
  3. Whisk in 3/4 cup of granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, and 1/4 tsp of salt until glossy.

  5. Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 20–25 minutes. Allow to cool completely in the pan.

  7. Drizzle the warm caramel generously over the cooled brownies, then sprinkle with shredded coconut and crushed shortbread cookies.
  8. Make the ganache by heating 1/4 cup of heavy cream until simmering, pouring it over another 4 oz of chocolate chips, and stirring until smooth.
  9. Drizzle the ganache over the coconut layer and chill in the fridge until set.
  10. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

For best results, ensure that your butter and chocolate are melted slowly to avoid scorching. Room temperature eggs help with batter incorporation.
