Macaroon Brownie Bars

Mary Schmitt from STOW, MA

I made these using a box mix (cake-style method) and baked 20 minutes then poured on the topping and baked an additional 18 minutes. The brownie was moist & the topping gooey & sweet. I made them for an office party & only the plate was left! Comments were to bring more next time! Easy recipe that looks like it took all day and gets great reviews. I'll make these again.
easy

Starr Musa from raeford, NC

Delicious!

Anita Hoffman from HOLLAND, PA

Easy to make. A great treat for a chocolate and coconut lover.

These are very rich but they are great! I made them with milk chocolate chips and everyone just loved them. the whole batch was gone before i knew it. They are so easy to make and such a treat for coconut lovers!
coconut good

ELIZABETH SCHMITZ from OAK FOREST, IL

These remind me of Hello Dolly Bars. They are very sweet but worth it. Anyone who likes chocolate and coconut will love these.
Yummy and Moist!

I made this recipe using a low fat boxed recipe and they turned out wonderfully! It's amazing how moist they ar and how easy they are to make! I've already given out the recipe to several people who tried them.

Jillian Carlos from wading river, NY

Made these for the people I work with, they loved them! They are really rich so make sure you have milk on hand. I was also shocked at how sticky they were after baking. I'd make it again but cut down on the milk.
Delicious!

SHAHANNA HOULE from GREENFIELD, MA

I made these for Easter and they were gone within minutes. Everyone commented how yummy they were. I've made them a few other times and I've always had the same results.
Best brownies ever

susan haynes from FAIRFIELD, IA

Quick and easy. My kids aren't a fan of coconut but they loved these and they didn't last long. Now they want to know when I will make more. Great brownies!
Chocolate Coconut Heaven

Pamela George from COLUMBIA, MO

I used Nestle Brownie mix instead of dough and added almonds. Almost reminded me of an Almond Joy. These are awesome and I'll make them again for sure.
Macaroon Brownies always a Success

NICOLE RENNER from WYANET, IL

Macaroon brownies are always excellent with the combination of chocolate and a great coconut mixture. Anytime I have a craving for coconut, I head for this recipe. I've made with our own homemade brownie mix, and also have saved some of the batter for a topping, and works out just as wonderfully. (I've also done half coconut and half caramel mixture if I was undecided on which to brownie "mess" to make.)
Macaroon Brownie Bars

JENNIFER MATTOCKS from UTICA, NY

Excellent brownies, very moist, and not too sweet! A couple days later and it is more moist than day one and tastes like a restaurant dessert! I made my own brownies from a fat free mix baked at 30 minutes. Taking a tip from another reviewer, I also used one cup of the swirled morsels instead of the semi-sweet. Definitely need a cup of chips! Will try a different chip next time for variety (though the swirled are excellent!) and will try using low fat sweetened condensed milk.
These are great !!

Linda Randles from NORTH CANTON, OH

Made these Brownie bars and the family loved them. The topping went so good with the Brownie part. This recipe went in my recipe box. Quick and easy. My favorite recipes.
Easy-Fast-Delicious-Different

Candace Blackwood from APEX, NC

Great! I used a box brownie mix. After baking for about 30 minutes, I added the topping and followed the macaroon recipe to finish baking. This dessert is great if you are baking several things for the holidays! I'm not sure I'll ever make plain brownies again.

PATTI JANICK from DALLAS, TX

I made these for Easter and they were gone in less than 15 minutes flat. Everyone enjoyed the texture, taste and how if they had known how easy they are to make I would have been hounded to go into the kitchen and make more!! I highly recommend them.
Sooooo Good!!!!

Dee Woodrell from JENNINGS, OK

These are go good to eat and easy to make. I have grand-daughters that are learning to cook. This is a good one for beginning cooks.
yummy

Lois Waldron from SUN CITY, AZ

easy to make, most ingredients already on hand. tasted like it was made from scratch, raves from friends.
Nice option

Jane Gaboury from ALPHARETTA, GA

I'm not much for pre-made brownies, so I used my favorite from-scratch brownie recipe. After 30 min. baking time, I added the topping as directed and the result is very good.

LINDA KNIEPP from COLLINSVILLE, IL

The Macaroon Brownie Bars were very easy to make. I took them to a school function and they disappeared very quickly and I was asked for the recipe. I will definitely make them again!
Mall Brownies

Marlene Asa from FREEBURG, IL

These brownies were so good! They had the flavor and consistency of a brownie that used to be sold at a very select cookie store found in a number of malls. These didn't last long at our house and will definitely be given an encore.
Good

HEIDY STOLTE from Walnut Creek, CA

a bit sweet
Rich & Moist

Marlene Asa from FREEBURG, IL

My family absolutely loved these. However, because they are so rich, they go best with a cup of coffee or a cold glass of milk. These were fantastic and easy.
Rave Reviews

Lee Ann Barker from ,

I made these with the holiday brownie bars with the special chips. I would use the regular kind next time. I took this to my family for Thanksgiving and everyone raved about them. I, myself, thought that they were much better the next day.

These were so very easy to make, and yummy too! I made them for my book club and everyone wanted the recipe!
Very good

Addison Logan from ft worth, tx

I was afraid this would be too much chocolate but the coconut and condensed milk easily offset. Quick and easy!
If You Can Find It!

Holly Mnuk from WAUKESHA, WI

After looking at four different grocery stores for the brownie dough I ended up with the fudge nut cookie dough. Harder to work with (had to pick out the nuts) and had to cut the temp to 325 and the first bake time to 15-20 min. Still yummy but quite a fiasco.
So easy and delicious!

Holly Sturgeon from KOKOMO, IN

These Macaroon Brownie Bars are so easy to make and yummy! I took them to a party and everybody loved them. This is a quick and easy dessert to make.
Macaroon Brownie Bars

Barbara Bringuel from CAMERON PARK, CA

Our family loves brownies and coconut. I have made 7 layer bars for years,but these will now take their place. Not only delicious, but super easy to make and soooooo good I will double this recipe for the holidays and make two pans.

Made these for my granddaughters sleepover party. The girls loved them! Made a double batch and there wasn't even one left at the end of the party.
macaroon brownie bars

judith egan from QUAKER HILL, CT

This was my first try on this recipie. I found that if you use smaller teaspoon full of batter to top the brownies it makes more of a uniformed top layer. When I went to bed the night I made them, there was a full 9by 13 pan on the table. When I got up the next morning, they were 3/4's gone. My husband liked them so much he ate pretty near the whole batch.
Yummy!

Leslie Huskey from WILLIAMSBURG, VA

These macaroon brownie bars are melt "melt in your mouth" delicious! They are easy to make and easier to eat!
easy to please

pamela schott from CANTON, OH

These are easy and pleasing to all. I'd serve them to my guests anytime!
Coconut Lover's Delight!

Rita Saumweber from SAINT PAUL, MN

If you love chocolate and coconut, this is the treat for you:) My store does not carry the brownie bar dough so I used a box mix. This worked just fine. The coconut topping was wonderful! I used the new swirl chips with the coconut - a nice visual addition as well as a sweeet touch. These are delicious:)
Macaroon Brownie Bars

Patt Helton from Hammond, LA

My grandaughter and I made this recipe last week and it was great. I didn't have the refrigerated brownie dough so I used a boxed one. Tasted wonderful & very easy to make.
Absolutely Delicious!!

Joy Dansby from Rock Hill, SC

Delicious!!! and so easy! Even my kids like to make these! These are a crowd favorite at family reunions and partys.

macaroon brownies

BARBARA CRAIG from GREENVILLE, TX

This was a big hit. Even my 4 young grandchildren were crazy about this. Imagine a 16 mo.old asking for "Sum Mow". Too bad they didn't save any for their dad. I will be sure to make these again.
Yummy

Sharon Wrobel from DESOTO, TX

The winning combination of chewy brownie and coconut makes the tongue sing! Great recipe.

HEATHER COLE from BONANZA, OR

I don't buy the pre-made stuff, so I made everything from scratch. It all tasted really good. Just needed to bake it a little longer. They're definitely for those who love rich treats!
