These were yummy, however I was running behind on time and decided rather than cut the brownies in bite sized pieces I would just do a giant layer of brownie, then fill with coconut layer, then another layer of brownie and topped with the chocolate. So the result was one giant mounds bar! This was a good idea until it came time to cut through the hardened chocolate, however it did still work! Good recipe, little on the rich side but definitely a keeper!
