Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8x8 inch baking pan with foil or parchment, lightly sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix together 1 cup of melted unsalted butter with 1 cup of light brown sugar until smooth and glossy.
  3. Add 2 large eggs and an additional egg yolk along with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, stirring until fully incorporated and smooth.
  4. Sprinkle in 1/2 teaspoon of fine sea salt and 1 cup of all-purpose flour, gently folding until just combined.
  5. Stir in 3/4 cup of sweetened shredded coconut and 8 ounces of semisweet chocolate chunks until evenly dispersed.
  6. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and smooth the surface, sprinkling the remaining coconut and chocolate on top.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 40 minutes until set around the edges but still slightly gooey in the center.
  8. Cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before lifting out and slicing into squares.
