How to Make Mounds Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a 7x11 inch rectangular baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine all coconut layer ingredients (see below) and mix with a fork or your hands until a thick paste forms.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Pour 2/3 of the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  9. Spread the coconut mixture evenly over the brownie batter.
  10. Spoon the remaining brownie batter over the coconut layer, leaving some areas of coconut exposed.
  11. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  12. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (165°C) and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the top is set.
  13. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before refrigerating for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and set.
  14. Lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and cut into squares.
  15. For an extra touch of indulgence, drizzle with melted semi-sweet or milk chocolate.
