Description
Samoas Cookie Pie is a delicious dessert that combines the flavors of classic Samoas cookies into a rich pie, topped with chocolate and caramel.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup unsalted butter, 1 stick, melted
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
- ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, for sprinkling
- 1 ½ cups sweetened shredded coconut, loosely laid in measuring cup (not packed)
- Two-thirds of one 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk, about 10 ounces
- 4 to 5 ounces salted caramel sauce, homemade or store-bought
- ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted for drizzling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F and spray a 9-inch pie dish very well with cooking spray.
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter in the microwave for about 1 minute on high power.
- Wait momentarily before adding the egg to avoid scrambling it. Then add the egg, brown sugar, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
- Add the flour and salt, then stir until just combined; do not overmix.
- Turn the batter out into the prepared pie dish, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes until edges firm up slightly and the center has begun to set.
- Remove pie dish from oven and sprinkle ¾ cup chocolate chips evenly over the crust.
- Sprinkle the coconut evenly over the chocolate chips.
- Evenly drizzle the sweetened condensed milk over the coconut.
- Evenly drizzle the caramel sauce. Return the pan to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes until slightly bubbling near the edges and the center looks set.
- Watch closely in the last 10 minutes of baking to prevent burning the coconut, caramel, and sweetened condensed milk.
- Allow the pie to cool in the dish on a wire rack while melting the remaining chocolate for drizzling.
- Use a spoon, pastry bag, or ziptop bag to evenly drizzle the melted chocolate over the pie.
- Allow pie to cool on wire rack for at least 4 hours (or overnight) before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Better to underbake than overbake if uncertain.
- Pie needs to cool sufficiently for the chocolate drizzle to set and pie to firm up.
