brownies, made in a 9 x 13 inch pan, prepared mix
5 1/3 c. sweetened coconut
1 1/2 c. powdered sugar
14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
1 c. heavy whipping cream
10 oz. pkg. dark chocolate chips
whole almonds, for garnish
Prepare brownies according to the package directions in a 9 x 13 inch pan. Cool completely.
In the bowl of your mixer, combine coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and powdered sugar until all ingredients are incorporated. Set aside.
Pour dark chocolate chips in a medium sized heat-proof bowl.
In a medium saucepan, heat cream while stirring until it just starts to boil. Immediately take off heat; pour over chocolate chips; don’t stir; set timer for 10 minutes.
When timer goes off, stir chocolate chip cream mixture until smooth and shiny; set aside to cool.
When brownies and chocolate mixture are both cool, spread coconut mixture evenly over brownies. Pour chocolate mixture over the top of the coconut frosting; spread evenly with a spatula.
Cover brownies; chill in refrigerator until chocolate is set.
When ready to serve, let brownies sit out a few minutes for easier cutting. Garnish each slice with a whole almond.
Refrigerate leftovers.
