It’s all about the fog this morning. Its so deep and dense that you can’t see more than a few feet in front of you. It has coated all the spider webs with glistening drops of dew that hold firmly like a string of beads on a chandelier. The fog horns are blowing mighty as the freighters make their way slowly through water amidst the blanket of blindness placed before them. And in the house it has left us feeling tired and snuggly.

Its the perfect kind of day to indulge in a Toasted Coconut Meringue Brownies. If I were at a bar and this were a cocktail I would tell the bartender to “make mine a double”, thats how badly I am in need of these today. But lucky for me its not a cocktail and the pan is here in my kitchen. I’m still gonna make it a double 😉 .

I started with my favorite brownie recipe, made a few adjustments and half baked it in a 9×13 pan. It’s hard to believe that these fab brownies could get any better but just wait. I whipped up a brown sugar meringue into stiff peaks, folded in finely shredded coconut and topped the hot brownie base with the coconut meringue. I sprikinled the top with more coconut and popped the pan back into the oven! The house is smelling A-M-A-Z-I-N-G, we got rich fudgey brownies baking, sweet, fragile meringue crisping. The coconut is toasting and browning like a sunbathing beauty.

Biting into this Toasted Coconut Meringue Brownie is no exception. You can feel the crisp meringue crackling along with the rich, dense, heavenly brownie. Together they compliment each other by being polar opposites, you know what they say, “opposites attract” and this Toasted Coconut Meringue Brownie is proof positive!! The coconut flavor ties both worlds together like the perfect belt.

Are you looking to step up your brownie game or maybe your obsessed with meringue, coconut and brownies. Whatever the reason you have to try these, you won’t be disappointed.

Enjoy!

Here are some of the products I used to make these brownies:

  1. Bobs Red Mill – Macaroon Coconut  – This coconut smells like heaven and is shredded super fine.
  2. Guittard Chocolate Chips – if you want a chocolate that is luxurious and that melts like silk this is it!
  3. Guittard Cocoa Powder – This is a high quality cocoa powder and worth the splurge.
  4. Nielsen Massey Vanilla Paste – There’s nothing like it and it breaks my heart when I run out! You use it just like you would extract.

Please note some of the links above are affiliate links which means if you purchase from the link I get a small commission. I use these products and stand behind them which is why I chose to tell you about them. Thank you for your support. 

FORGOT TO PIN IT? Here it is. Thanks!

Meringue is very sensitive to humidity so keep these brownies in a cool, dry place.
These are very rich and can be cut into smaller pieces if you wish.
