This is my new favorite brownie recipe... double chocolate coconut brownies - yum!
I adapted the recipe from this King Arthur Flour recipe
Double Chocolate Coconut Brownies
INGREDIENTS
4 eggs
1 1/4 cups cocoa
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups dark chocolate chips
1 teaspoon coconut extract
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (This is the step I always forget :)
2. Beat the eggs with the cocoa, salt, baking powder, coconut extract and vanilla till smooth.
3. In a saucepan over low
heat, melt the butter, add the sugar and stir. Heat briefly until the mixture
is hot but not bubbling; it'll become shiny
looking as you stir it.
4. Add the hot butter/sugar mixture to the egg/cocoa mixture, stirring until smooth.
5. Add the flour and chocolate chips, again stirring until smooth.
Optionally, adding a tablespoon of Bailey's adds another great aspect of flavor. I also want to try adding lemon zest or orange zest, or a tablespoon of peach schnapps

I've suddenly become a hat person - don't know where that came from. But I've collected a whole bunch of cute hats over the past few months, and made this hat rack to store them / show them off:
I'm really pleased. It has made my room so much more homey :)

Ooh those brownies look SOOO good, are they the same kind you made with Jon a while back? They were really yummy. I ate one and didn't realize it had coconut in it till you told me, it's subtle but it works really well for people who don't like coconut that much too. :)
ReplyDelete*hugs* your hat rack is lovely, too. I'm so glad you've finished it! :)
