Description

This Samoas Cookie Pie is a decadent dessert inspired by the beloved Girl Scout cookie. Featuring a buttery crust topped with layers of semi-sweet chocolate chips, toasted shredded coconut, gooey sweetened condensed milk, and luscious caramel sauce, all finished with a chocolate drizzle, this pie combines crunchy, chewy, and creamy textures for an irresistible treat perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale

Crust and Base

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick, melted)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

Toppings

  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (for sprinkling)
  • 1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut (loosely laid in measuring cup, not packed)
  • Two-thirds of one 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk (about 10 ounces)
  • 4 to 5 ounces salted caramel sauce (homemade or store-bought; regular caramel sauce may be substituted)

Chocolate Drizzle

  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously spray a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking, then set aside.
  2. Melt Butter: In a large, microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter by heating it on high power for about 1 minute. Allow it to cool slightly to avoid scrambling the egg in the next step.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: Add the egg, light brown sugar, and vanilla extract to the melted butter. Whisk the mixture until smooth and fully combined.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the all-purpose flour and salt just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the crust tender.
  5. Form Crust and Initial Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish, smoothing the surface lightly with a spatula. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges firm up slightly and the center begins to set but is not fully baked.
  6. Add Chocolate Chips: Remove the pie from the oven and evenly sprinkle 3/4 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips over the partially baked crust.
  7. Add Coconut Layer: Evenly distribute the sweetened shredded coconut on top of the chocolate chips.
  8. Drizzle Sweetened Condensed Milk: Drizzle approximately 10 ounces (two-thirds of a 14-ounce can) of sweetened condensed milk evenly over the coconut layer.
  9. Add Caramel Sauce: Drizzle 4 to 5 ounces of salted caramel sauce evenly over the condensed milk layer.
  10. Bake Until Set: Return the pie to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes or until slight bubbling appears near the edges and the center looks more set and dried out. Watch carefully during the last 10 minutes to prevent burning of the coconut and caramel layers; it’s better to slightly underbake than overbake.
  11. Cool and Melt Chocolate: Remove the pie and place it on a wire rack to cool. Meanwhile, melt 3/4 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl for about 1 minute on high, stirring every 10 seconds to achieve a smooth consistency.
  12. Drizzle Chocolate: Using a spoon or piping bag, drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled pie in long, vertical lines spaced about 1/2-inch apart. The pie does not need to be completely cooled before adding the drizzle.
  13. Final Cooling: Allow the pie to cool on the wire rack for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to let the chocolate set and the pie firm up. Slice and serve once fully chilled to avoid a messy texture.

Notes

  • Ensure the pie is fully cooled and set before slicing to avoid a gooey, messy outcome.
  • Watch closely in the final minutes of baking to prevent the coconut and caramel from burning.
  • Use salted caramel sauce for a balanced sweet and salty flavor, but regular caramel sauce can be substituted.
  • For a more polished look, use a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped to drizzle the chocolate.
  • The sweetened shredded coconut should be loosely packed when measured to maintain the right texture.
