Categories     dessert

Time 2h10m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, plus more for the baking dish
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup loosely packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon coconut extract
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sweetened coconut flakes
1/2 cup chopped skinned almonds, optional
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1 cup sweetened coconut flakes
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 to 3 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • For the brownies: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a 13-by-9-inch baking dish with parchment, overhanging the edges by about 2 inches. Coat the parchment lightly with butter.
  • Melt the butter and chocolate chips together in a large heat-proof bowl set over simmering water, then remove from the heat.
  • With an electric mixer on low speed, mix the sugars into the chocolate mixture, then beat in the eggs on medium speed, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Beat in the extracts.
  • Mix in the flour on low speed until just combined. Fold in the coconut and nuts, if using, by hand. Fold in the salt.
  • Spread the mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool completely on a rack before frosting.
  • For the frosting: Meanwhile, spread the coconut flakes on a baking sheet and bake, stirring once or twice, until lightly toasted, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
  • Combine the butter and extracts in a large bowl and beat on medium-high until light, about 1 minute. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat on low until combined, then beat on high until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Beat in the milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the frosting is easily spreadable.
  • Use the parchment overhang to remove the brownies from the baking dish in one piece. Spread the frosting on the brownies and sprinkle with the toasted coconut. Cut into bars to serve. The brownies can be made up to a day ahead and refrigerated in the baking dish.

Tips:

  • Use fresh coconut: Fresh coconut will give your waffles the best flavor. If you don't have fresh coconut, you can use unsweetened shredded coconut, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Toast the coconut before using: Toasting the coconut will bring out its flavor and make it more fragrant. You can toast the coconut in a toaster oven or in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your waffles tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a hot waffle iron: A hot waffle iron will help your waffles cook evenly and prevent them from sticking. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Serve the waffles immediately: Waffles are best served hot and fresh. If you need to keep them warm, place them in a preheated oven at 200 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

Toasted coconut waffles are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch treat. They're perfect for a special occasion or a lazy weekend morning. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy these fluffy, flavorful waffles right at home.
