Samoas Cookie Pie is a decadent dessert inspired by the popular Samoa cookies, combining a buttery cookie crust with gooey caramel, toasted coconut, chocolate chips, and a luscious chocolate drizzle. This pie features layers of semi-sweet chocolate, sweetened shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and salted caramel sauce baked together to create a rich and chewy treat that sets beautifully after cooling.

Ingredients

Scale

Pie 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 and Fillings

  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (for sprinkling)
  • 1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut (loosely 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)
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9-inch pie dish thoroughly with cooking spray and set it aside to ensure the pie doesn’t stick.
  2. Melt Butter: In a large, microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter by heating it about 1 minute on high power. Let it cool briefly to avoid cooking the egg in the next step.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the egg, light brown sugar, and vanilla extract into the melted butter. Whisk everything together until smooth and fully combined.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the all-purpose flour and salt gently, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix so the crust remains tender.
  5. Bake First Layer: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pie dish and smooth the top lightly with a spatula. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges look firm and the center starts to set but is not fully baked.
  6. Add Chocolate Chips: Remove from the oven and evenly sprinkle 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips over the partially baked crust.
  7. Add Coconut: Spread the sweetened shredded coconut evenly over the chocolate chips layer.
  8. Drizzle Sweetened Condensed Milk: Evenly drizzle about two-thirds of a 14-ounce can (approximately 10 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk over the coconut layer.
  9. Drizzle Caramel Sauce: Evenly drizzle 4 to 5 ounces of salted caramel sauce over the condensed milk layer for a rich, gooey texture.
  10. Bake Second Layer: Return the pie to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes, until you see bubbling near the edges and the center firming. Watch carefully during the last 10 minutes to prevent burning the coconut and caramel layer.
  11. Cool and Melt Chocolate: Set the pie aside on a wire rack to cool. Melt the remaining 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl—heat 1 minute on high, stirring every 10 seconds until smooth.
  12. Drizzle Melted Chocolate: Using a spoon or a piping bag, drizzle the melted chocolate over the top in long vertical lines spaced about 1/2 inch apart; the pie does not need to be fully cooled for this step.
  13. Final Cooling: Allow the pie to cool on the wire rack for at least 4 hours or overnight. This resting period allows the filling to set properly and the chocolate drizzle to firm up for clean slices.

Notes

  • Watch the pie closely during the last 10 minutes of baking to avoid burning the coconut and caramel layer.
  • The pie needs thorough cooling (at least 4 hours) for the filling and chocolate drizzle to fully set.
  • You can use regular caramel sauce if salted caramel is not available; just note it may be a bit sweeter without the salt contrast.
  • To make slicing easier, use a sharp knife and wipe it clean between cuts.
  • This recipe can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
