Ingredients
Cookie Pie Base
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
Caramel Coconut Layer
- 3 cups sweetened shredded coconut (Toast for best flavor.)
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk, 14 ounces
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup thick caramel sauce or caramel dip (Use thicker sauce for better texture.)
Chocolate Drizzle
- 0.75 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or butter
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Spread coconut on a sheet pan and toast for about 6 to 10 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes until golden.
- In a bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Add eggs and vanilla, and stir to combine.
- Mix in flour, baking soda, and salt until no dry streaks remain. Fold in chocolate chips. Press about two-thirds of the dough into a greased pie dish.
Filling
- In a separate bowl, combine toasted coconut, condensed milk, salt, vanilla, and caramel sauce until sticky and thick.
Assembly and Baking
- Spoon the coconut mixture over the cookie crust and spread it out. Crumble the remaining cookie dough over the top, leaving some gaps.
- Bake at 350°F (177°C) for 25 to 35 minutes, until the edges are set and golden, but the center remains soft. Cool for at least 30 minutes.
Chocolate Drizzle
- Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in the microwave, drizzling over the pie once melted.
Notes
For best results, avoid overbaking and allow it to cool before slicing for clean wedges. Store leftovers tightly covered; will keep for 2 days at room temp or 5 days refrigerated.
