How to Make Chocolate Frosted Toffees

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Toast 1 cup of shredded sweetened coconut on a baking sheet for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned.
  2. Let the toasted coconut cool completely.
  3. Grease a 13x9-inch baking pan with 2 tablespoons of butter.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the cooled toasted coconut, 1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk, ½ cup light corn syrup, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter, ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¼ cup all-purpose flour.
  5. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
  6. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  7. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until the toffee is golden brown and set.
  8. Let the toffee cool completely in the pan before frosting.
  9. Once the toffee is completely cool, frost with the chocolate frosting (see instructions below).
  10. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the frosting to firm up.
  11. Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy!
  12. **Chocolate Frosting:**
  13. In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water, melt 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips with ⅓ cup heavy cream over low heat, stirring until smooth.
  14. Remove from heat and stir in 2 cups powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
