Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut, divided
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
1 cup thick caramel sauce or unwrapped soft caramels, melted
2 tablespoons heavy cream
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9-inch pie dish well.
2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and creamy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until a soft dough forms.
6. Fold in 1 cup of the chocolate chips and 3/4 cup of the shredded coconut.
7. Press the dough evenly into the prepared pie dish.
8. Bake for 28 to 35 minutes, until the edges are golden and the center is just set.
9. While the pie cools, toast the remaining 3/4 cup shredded coconut in a skillet or oven until golden.
10. Warm the caramel sauce with 1 tablespoon of heavy cream if needed, then stir in the toasted coconut.
11. Spread the caramel coconut mixture over the cooled pie.
12. Melt the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon heavy cream, then drizzle over the top.
13. Let the topping set slightly, then slice and serve.
Notes
Let the pie cool before topping so the caramel coconut layer stays on top instead of sinking in.
Toast the coconut carefully and stir often because it can brown quickly.
For the cleanest slices, chill the pie for 20 to 30 minutes after adding the chocolate drizzle.
