Description

Decadent brownies mash rich dark chocolate with sweet coconut and crunchy pecans.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsweetened chocolate
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch or 9×9-inch baking pan.
  2. Melt the unsweetened chocolate and butter in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in sugar. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.

  5. Fold in chopped pecans and shredded coconut.
