Time 1h45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour
1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
1/2 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1 1/2 teaspoon Espresso Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
3/4 cup Unsalted Butter
4 tablespoon Heavy Cream
1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
1 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
1 1/4 cup Heavy Cream
1/2 cup Corn Syrup
1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
2 1/2 cup Assorted Nuts
1 1/2 cup Unsweetened Coconut Flakes
3 ounce Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  • In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together All-Purpose Flour (1 1/2 cup), Granulated Sugar (1/2 cup), Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (1/2 cup), Espresso Powder (1 1/2 teaspoon), and Salt (1/2 teaspoon).
  • Add Unsalted Butter (3/4 cup) and pulse until butter has broken down into small bits, about 10 seconds.
  • Add Heavy Cream (4 tablespoon) and pulse until just combined. The mixture will seem dry.
  • Spray a 9 by 13-inch pan with nonstick spray. Line the bottom and two sides of the pan with parchment. Press mixture evenly into pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and sprinkle base with the Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (1 cup). Allow to sit for 1-2 minutes, then spread melted chips evenly over base. Allow to cool to room temperature.
  • While the base is cooling, roast your Assorted Nuts (2 1/2 cup) by placing in a single layer on a baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 12 minutes, turning once halfway through.
  • In a medium heavy-bottom pot, combine Brown Sugar (1 1/4 cup), Heavy Cream (1 1/4 cup), and Corn Syrup (1/2 cup). Heat over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves, stirring often. Continue to cook until mixture reaches 225 degrees F (107 degrees C) on a candy thermometer, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and add Pure Vanilla Extract (1 teaspoon), Roasted Nuts, and Unsweetened Coconut Flakes (1 1/2 cup). Allow to cool and thicken slightly, about 30 minutes.
  • Pour nut mixture over base and spread evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the entire pan is bubbling. Remove from oven and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Drizzle Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate (3 ounce) over bars. Allow chocolate to set before cutting.
  • Run a knife along edges to loosen and lift the entire unit out of the pan using the parchment sides. Cut as desired. Serve and enjoy!
