Samoas Cookie Pie is a decadent dessert inspired by the beloved Samoas cookies, featuring a buttery crust topped with layers of luscious caramel, sweetened condensed milk, toasted coconut, and rich chocolate. This pie combines the classic flavors of caramel-coconut-chocolate in a delightfully gooey and sliceable form perfect for sharing.

Ingredients

Scale

Crust and Base

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste

Toppings and Filling

  • ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (for sprinkling)
  • 1 ½ 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 can be substituted)
  • ¾ 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 very well with cooking spray and set aside to ensure the pie won’t stick.
  2. Melt Butter and Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter by microwaving about 1 minute on high power. Allow it to cool slightly before adding the egg to prevent scrambling. Then whisk in the egg, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until mixture is smooth.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the all-purpose flour and salt, mixing just until combined to avoid overworking the dough.
  4. Form the Crust and Initial Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish and smooth the top lightly with a spatula. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are slightly firm and the center begins to set but is not fully baked.
  5. Add Toppings Layer 1 – Chocolate Chips: Remove the pie from the oven and evenly sprinkle ¾ cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips over the surface of the crust.
  6. Add Toppings Layer 2 – Coconut: Evenly distribute the sweetened shredded coconut over the chocolate chips.
  7. Add Toppings Layer 3 – Sweetened Condensed Milk: Drizzle approximately 10 ounces (two-thirds of the can) of sweetened condensed milk evenly over the coconut layer.
  8. Add Toppings Layer 4 – Caramel Sauce: Drizzle 4 to 5 ounces of salted caramel sauce evenly over the condensed milk layer.
  9. Bake Final Layers: Return the pie to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes until there is slight bubbling near the edges and the center looks more set. Watch closely in the last 10 minutes to prevent burning the coconut, caramel, and condensed milk layers; underbaking slightly is better than overbaking.
  10. Cool and Melt Drizzle Chocolate: Allow the pie to cool on a wire rack. Meanwhile, melt ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl in 10-second increments, stirring between until smooth and glossy.
  11. Drizzle Chocolate: Using a spoon or piping bag, drizzle the melted chocolate in long vertical lines spaced about ½ inch apart over the top of the cooled pie. The pie does not need to be completely cold before drizzling.
  12. Final Cooling: Let the pie cool further on the wire rack for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight for the chocolate drizzle to set and the pie to firm up properly before slicing and serving. Avoid cutting too early to prevent a messy texture.

Notes

  • Ensure you loosely measure the shredded coconut for accurate texture results.
  • Keep a close eye on the pie during the last minutes of baking to avoid burning the caramel and coconut.
  • Allowing the pie to cool completely is critical for clean slices and the best texture.
  • The salted caramel sauce adds a nice contrast — if using regular caramel sauce, consider adding a pinch of salt to enhance flavor.
  • This pie can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
