Ingredients
  

For the Crust

  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Can use coconut oil for a dairy-free option.
For the Filling
  • 1 cup Sweetened Shredded Coconut Unsweetened shredded coconut can be used if sugar content is a concern.
  • 1 cup Caramel Sauce Store-bought or homemade; opt for a thicker sauce for less runny filling.
  • 1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk Coconut cream can be used as a vegan alternative; may change texture slightly.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Optional to substitute with almond extract for a different taste.
For the Topping
  • 1/2 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips Substitute with dark chocolate chips for a more intense flavor.

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Samoa Pie
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and melted unsalted butter. Stir until well combined.
  3. Press the crumb mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie pan, making sure it's even. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool slightly.
  4. In a medium saucepan, combine sweetened condensed milk, caramel sauce, and vanilla extract. Heat over medium heat, stirring continuously until thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Fold in shredded coconut.
  5. Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust and spread evenly. Bake for an additional 15 minutes, until the top is golden.
  6. Let the pie cool completely at room temperature for about 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
  7. Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until smooth. Drizzle over the chilled Samoa Pie.
  8. Slice into pieces using a heated knife and serve chilled or at room temperature.
