How to Make Coconut Fudge Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C).
  2. Spread 1 cup of chopped nuts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and lightly golden. Set aside to cool.
  3. Increase oven temperature to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
  4. Coarsely chop 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder. Set aside.
  6. In a large bowl, cream together 1 ½ cups sugar and ½ cup softened butter until light and fluffy.
  7. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in ¾ cup cocoa powder and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  8. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  9. Stir in the toasted nuts and chopped chocolate chips.
  10. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  11. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  12. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before frosting.
  13. While brownies cool, prepare the fudge topping: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup heavy cream and ¾ cup packed brown sugar.
  14. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook until the mixture reaches 242°F (117°C) on a candy thermometer.
  15. Remove from heat and let cool slightly (about 5 minutes).
  16. Whisk in 4 tablespoons of softened butter until smooth and creamy.
  17. Spread the fudge topping evenly over the cooled brownies.
  18. Sprinkle with ½ cup toasted coconut flakes.
