Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F / 160C fan forced. Line an 8x8 inch square baking tin with baking paper.
- On the VERY LOWEST heat, melt the butter and chocolate together in a saucepan, stirring regularly. Remove from heat.
- Use a handheld beater to beat together both sugars, eggs and melted chocolate and butter together.
- Sift over the flour, cocoa and salt and use a spatula to mix through until just combined.
- Bake for 20 minutes. As soon as you take the brownie out of the oven, press another 8x8 inch tin down on top lightly just to flatten it a little (this step is optional but makes the brownie a nice flat layer for the coconut layer to sit on).
- Mix the coconut, condensed milk and vanilla together in a bowl until well mixed. Use wet hands to spread the mix over the cooled brownie base and press down firmly.
- Place the chopped chocolate in a bowl and set aside. Heat the cream in a small saucepan over very low heat until it starts to bubble. Pour it over the chopped chocolate, let it sit for about 1 minute to soften the chocolate, then stir it to a smooth, glossy ganache. Pour it over the coconut layer and spread out evenly.
- Scatter the ganache immediately with shredded coconut. Allow to set in the fridge for 2 hours before slicing

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8×8-inch pan with aluminum foil leaving overhang, spray with cooking spray; set aside. It's mandatory to line your pan or you'll never get the brownies out.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate, butter, and heat on high power to melt, about 1 minute. Stop to check and stir. Reheat in 15-second bursts until mixture can be stirred smooth.
- Add the eggs, sugar, vanilla, optional coffee, optional espresso granules, and whisk until smooth. Coffee and espresso don't make the brownies taste like coffee; they enhance the chocolate flavor.
- Add the flour and stir until just combined; don't overmix.
- Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula and bake until brownies are just set and done, about 28 minutes in my oven. Start checking at 25 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. Don't overbake because brownies go back into the oven after they're topped with coconut.
- While brownies are baking, in a large bowl (the same one you used for the brownies is fine, just wipe it clean with a paper towel) combine the coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and toss to coat evenly; set aside until brownies come out of oven.
- When brownies are done and removed from the oven, evenly top with the coconut mixture. Smooth the top lightly with a spatula, pushing mixture gentle into all corners.
- Evenly sprinkle with chocolate chips.
- Return pan to oven and bake for 5 minutes.
- Remove pan from oven and using a spatula, lightly smooth the chocolate chips. They will be have softened enough to smooth out when pressed lightly with a spatula.
- Place pan on a wire rack and allow to cool, undisturbed, for at least 2 to 3 hours, or until top chocolate layer has set; allowing to cool overnight is best.
- When ready to serve, lift brownies of pan using foil overhang, place on a large cutting board, and slice with your biggest and sharpest knife. Slicing is messy, but the longer brownies cool, the easier and less messy it is.
