Coconut Swirls Recipes

COCONUT SWIRL BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a buttered 8-inch square baking pan with parchment, allowing a 2-inch overhang. Butter lining (not overhang).
• Stir together 1 tablespoon of sugar, the condensed milk, coconut, egg white, and 1/4 teaspoon of the vanilla in a bowl.
• Put butter and both chocolates in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water; stir until melted. Let cool slightly.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
• Whisk remaining 3/4 cup sugar into chocolate mixture. Add eggs; whisk until mixture is smooth. Stir in remaining 2 teaspoons vanilla. Add flour mixture; stir until well combined.
• Pour 1/3 of chocolate batter into prepared pan. Spread evenly with an offset spatula. Drop dollops of coconut mixture (about 1 tablespoon each) on top of batter, spacing about 1 inch apart. Drizzle remaining batter on top, and gently spread to fill pan. Drop dollops of remaining coconut mixture on top.
• Gently swirl coconut mixture into batter with a butter knife, running the knife lengthwise and crosswise through layers. Bake until a cake tester inserted into brownies (avoid center and edges) comes out with a few crumbs but is not wet, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool slightly in pan, about 15 minutes. Lift out; let cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into squares. Brownies can be stored between layers of parchment in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days.

COCONUT AND RASPBERRY SWIRL COOKIES

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Combine the butter and sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on low speed then gradually increase the speed to medium, until lightly and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
• With the machine running on medium speed, add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until thoroughly combined after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, as necessary. Add the vanilla and almond extracts.
• Slowly add in the flour and salt with the machine running on low speed and mix until the dough comes together and no streaks of flour remain, about 1 minute. Add the coconut and mix on low speed just until combined, about 30 seconds.
• Fold in the raspberries with a silicone or rubber spatula. They will begin to break but try not to overwork the dough to keep them intact as much as possible.
• Scoop the dough with a medium (2-inch) ice cream scoop, flattening the dough against the bowl, and place 6 scoops at least 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake 1 sheet of cookies at a time for 6 minutes then rotate the sheet and continue baking until the bottoms of the cookies are golden brown and the tops have set, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.
• Serve or store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
