I will get this posted, one way or another. I'm not allowed to pick up my book, watch Jeopardy, or go to any other website until this is posted. I made these on Wednesday and things just kept getting in the way every time I attempted to get these posted. Even now, it's "Hmm... I should see when that bill is due." Nope, don't do it, Kristen. Post!
Alright. *determined sigh* I had a 'bonus' day off this week, and decided that I should bake something to mail out to Johanna. I texted her early in the morning, asking if she had a specific blondie in mind (she's very fussy about brownies, preferring, sadly, the box mix kind). Well, with no response within about 30-45 minutes, I went with these, having seen them many times over the years at Very Best Baking. Minus the macadamias, since we didn't have any in the house. *shrug*
They came together easily enough, but the finished product didn't leave me all that wow'ed. Maybe more coconut next time? I don't know. Any suggestions?
(No picture due to lack of time on Thursday morning, pre-mailing lol)

I just made some coconut cupcakes with white chocolate coconut streusel! I love the flavor combination; I'm just sorry that your brownies didn't wow you! Sometimes, when I'm looking for extra coconut flavor, I grind coconut and whatever nuts I have on hand in the food processor to make a sort of coconut butter, and then I either add this to the recipe or replace some of the butter in the recipe with it. It's usually about 1:1/2 ratio of coconut to actual nuts (it's really good if you use macadamia nuts)!
