James has recently decided that he loves shredded coconut. With the end of summer quickly approaching, I thought it would be fun to spend some time with him while putting together a recipe that he would enjoy. James and I had a great time making Coconut Macaroon Brownies!
Coconut Macaroon Brownies Recipe –
Ingredients:
- 1 package brownie mix {as well as the eggs and oil called for on the package}
- 1 package (14 ounces) shredded coconut
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- Optional: chocolate candy for drizzle
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Prepare brownie mix as directed.
- Using a small cupcake scoop, drop one scoop in each section of a mini cupcake sheet.
- Bake for about half of whatever the box recipe says.
- While the brownies are baking, mix the shredded coconut and sweetened condensed milk together in a bowl.
- When the brownie timer goes off, pull them out of the oven, use the bottom of a tall, thin shot glass or the back of a spoon and press it into each brownie (to make a ‘cup’ of sorts).
- Add a spoonful of the coconut mixture to each ‘cup.’
- Place the brownies back in the oven for the other half of the baking time.
- Optional: Drizzle with melted chocolate
- Serve and enjoy!
James thought the Coconut Macaroon Brownies were delicious! He couldn’t eat them all, though, so I sent the leftovers to work with my husband. He and his co-workers thought they were scrumptious, too!

All the things I love in one recipe! I might change it up with salted Caramel sauce on the top.
