Aloha Brownies image

I got this brownie recipe from a magazine clipping several years ago. It must have been a Pillsbury recipe because the recipe calls for a Pillsbury brownie mix. Its very good and different. I have not made this one in the past year so do not have a picture but these are pretty as well as delicious. The dark chocolate brownies have a cream cheese icing and I sprinkle more coconut on top of the frosting. These are nice enough for the holidays and easy enough for a picnic.

BROWNIES:
1 package(s) pillsbury fudge walnut brownie mix
1/2 cup(s) vegetable oil
1 large egg
1 can(s) (8 ounces) crushed pineapple in its own juice, drained
1 cup(s) coconut

2 cup(s) powdered sugar (sift if lumpy)
1 package(s) (3 ounces) softened cream cheese
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract
1-3 teaspoon(s) milk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottom only of a 9 by 13 inch pan. In a large bowl combine all brownie ingredients; beat 50 strokes by hand or until well blended. Spread in greased pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE. Cool completely.
  • in a small bowl combine all frosting ingredients, adding enough milk until frosting is of desired spreading consistency. Spread over cooled brownies. Cut in bars. Store any leftovers in refrigerator.
  • NOTE: I like to sprinkle more coconut over frosting right after spreading it on the brownies.
