Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang.
- In a bowl, whisk warm melted butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time, whisking vigorously. Stir in vanilla.
- Sift cocoa powder, flour, and salt into the wet ingredients. Fold gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into pan and bake for 20-25 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan.
- Toast coconut in a large skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Transfer to a bowl.
- Microwave unwrapped caramels, heavy cream, and a pinch of salt in 30-second intervals until smooth.
- Reserve 3 tablespoons of melted caramel. Pour the rest over the toasted coconut and fold until evenly coated.
- Spread the reserved 3 tablespoons of plain caramel over the cooled brownies. Top with the sticky caramel-coconut mixture, pressing into an even layer.
- Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together. Drizzle in a diagonal zigzag pattern over the coconut topping.
- Chill for 30 minutes to set, then use the parchment overhang to lift out and cut into squares.
