Let’s Make It!
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together egg, butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until combined.
- Mix in the flour until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Spread onto the pie dish evenly. Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until edges firm up slightly.
- Remove pie dish from oven. In order: Evenly sprinkle half the chocolate chips and all of the coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and caramel sauce over pie.
- Put pie back into oven. Bake for 22-27 minutes, until there’s slight bubbling at edge of dish and the center starts to dry. Be careful not to overbake – it’s best to underbake if you’re worried.
- Remove pie and let cool in pie dish for 1-2 hours.
- Melt the rest of the chocolate chips into a spreadable consistency. Do this by microwaving in 15 second increments, stirring, and repeating. You may need to add around a tablespoon of milk, oil, or water to get better consistency. Aim for a consistency slightly thinner than Nutella.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate on top or spread using a spoon or paddle.
- Let pie cool for another hour or two until the chocolate drizzle and pie is more set.
- Cover and store. Can be kept at room temperature covered for a few days or put into the fridge or freezer for longer.
Notes & Alternatives
- Use a caramel topping/sauce that is slightly thicker than regular syrup. Salted and non-salted work equally well.
- Want a lower calorie or less carby option? I personally use Swerve sugar variants in my baking, and you can also use Lily’s chocolate chips. Replacing the flour used here with almond flour may also work.
History
- The Girl Scouts was founded in 1912 by Juliette Low in order to get more girls more interested in the outdoors through educational programs.
- What type of pie is this? A Samoa, Caramel deLites, or a Keebler Coconut Dreams Pie?
