Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350. Spray 9X13X2 pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Prepare Brownies as indicated on the box but add 1 tsp almond extract the same time you add the eggs. Cool. When the brownies are cool, poke holes all over the brownie's surface with a fork. (Keep the oven on).
- Put the condensed milk into a small medium sized saucepan and bring to a low boil over medium heat. Stir often so it doesn't turn the milk into caramel. Add the marshmallow cream and continue mixing until combined. Add the coconut and mix well. Spoon the coconut mixture over the cooled brownies and put it back in the oven for 8 minutes. Cool. (Turn off oven).
- In small bowl, melt chocolate chips in the microwave for a minute at a time and mix well. Continue until completely melted. Drizzle over bars. While the chocolate is still soft and unset, scatter almonds over the bars too. Cover lightly and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Cut brownies 3 lines lengthwise with a sharp knife, then 5 lines across. You'll have 18 beautiful almond-joy-ee brownies!
- Raves all around!

Steps:
- 1. Prepare and cool the brownies. Do not remove them from the pan.
- 2. In the bowl of a stand mixer combine the condensed milk and coconut. Slowly add the powdered sugar and mix on low speed. Spread the coconut mixture over the brownies. Wet fingers work best to do this! Top the coconut with the almonds.
- 3. In a small sauce pan, heat the cream and butter over low-medium heat. Add the chocolate chips and stir until the chocolate is fully melted. Cool slightly. Pour the chocolate over the coconut and almonds. Cover and refrigerate. Cool completely before cutting. Serve from the baking pan.
Tips:
- Use good quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly affect the taste of your brownies. Use a high-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate for the best results.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough, dense brownies. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached: Overbaking the brownies will make them dry and crumbly. Check the brownies for doneness a few minutes before the baking time is up.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.
- Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week: You can also freeze the brownies for up to 2 months.
Conclusion:
These Almond Joy Brownies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are rich, chocolatey, and coconutty, with a chewy texture and a crispy crust. Whether you are a fan of Almond Joys or just love brownies, you are sure to enjoy this recipe.
