Steps:
- Lightly brush bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet with oil. Line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on long sides; lightly brush parchment with oil. Sprinkle 1/2 cup coconut on parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bring cream to a simmer over high heat. Remove from heat; add chocolate. Let stand 1 minute; stir to combine.
- Bring sugar, butter, and corn syrup to a boil in a large saucepan over high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to medium-high; cook, stirring occasionally, until caramel reaches 248 degrees on a candy thermometer, about 15 minutes.
- Stir in cream mixture; boil until caramel returns to 248 degrees.
- Immediately remove caramel from heat, and stir in salt and vanilla. Pour caramel onto baking sheet, sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup coconut, and let stand, uncovered, at room temperature at least 8 hours and up to 1 day.
- Lifting by parchment overhang, transfer caramel to a large cutting board. Cut into 3/4-by-1 1/4-inch pieces; wrap each piece in waxed paper or cellophane.
