Preparation

Step 1

Mix up your brownie mix and pour into a sprayed 9x13 inch pan.
In a heavy sauce pan (over medium on the stove) heat syrup, marshmallows, and salt until marshmallows are melted. Continue to stir over heat for an additional minute. Remove from stove and add coconut, vanilla, and chopped almonds. Stir well and dollop this coconut mix all over the top of the brownie mix, it doesn't need to be completely covering the top, just evenly distributed.
Bake the brownies according to the regular directions.
When there is about 5 minutes left, begin melting the chocolate chips. I like to do this by putting them in a metal bowl and placing the bowl over a pot of boiling water. Stir until chocolate is melted and smooth.
When you remove the brownies from the oven, drizzle all over with the melted chocolate and sprinkle with some extra coconut flakes.
