  • 3. Assemble the Samoas:

    • Take each cooled cookie and dip the bottom into the caramel-coconut mixture, spreading it to the edges. You want the top of the cookie to be completely covered in the gooey, sweet mixture.
    • Once all cookies are topped, let them cool for about 15 minutes so the caramel sets a bit.

    4. Drizzle with Chocolate:

    • While the cookies are cooling, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl with 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between each session until smooth and fully melted.
    • Once the chocolate is melted, dip the bottom of each cookie into the chocolate, or use a spoon to drizzle the chocolate over the top of each cookie in a zig-zag pattern. Be generous with the drizzle!
    • Allow the cookies to cool completely at room temperature or in the fridge for about 20-30 minutes until the chocolate is set.

    Tips for Perfect Homemade Samoas:

    • Storage: Store your homemade Samoas in an airtight container for up to 1 week. You can also refrigerate them if you prefer them chilled.
    • Toast the Coconut: Be sure to toast the coconut in a dry skillet before adding it to the caramel. It adds a delicious depth of flavor and gives the cookies that signature Samoa texture.
    • Customize the Chocolate: If you’re a dark chocolate lover, feel free to substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips for dark chocolate chips for a richer taste.
    • Go Gluten-Free: If you’re gluten intolerant, you can make these cookies gluten-free by using a 1:1 gluten-free flour substitute.
