How to Make German Chocolate Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch or 9x9 inch baking pan.
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter. Add 8 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips, stirring constantly until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool for 15 minutes.
- Add 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the cooled chocolate mixture. Mix well.
- Add 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- While the brownies bake, prepare the topping: In a medium bowl, combine ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, ½ cup packed brown sugar, ¼ cup light corn syrup, and ¼ cup milk. Mix well.
- Stir in 1 cup shredded coconut and 1 cup chopped pecans.
- Once the brownies are baked, immediately spread the topping evenly over the warm brownies.
- Broil for 1-1 ½ minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and bubbly. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares. This will take about 1 hour.
