Samoa Cookie Sheet Cake Recipes

HOMEMADE SAMOA COOKIES

Steps:

• Beat butter, white sugar, and salt together in a bowl; add 2 cups flour and stir. Beat 1 cup flour into butter mixture; mix until a sticky dough forms.
• Whisk egg, vanilla extract, and milk together in a bowl. Beat remaining flour and egg mixture into dough. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Break off a small portion of dough and roll it out on a lightly floured work surface into a 1/4-inch thick round. Place round on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.
• Bake cookies in the preheated oven until slightly golden and soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Cook and stir coconut in a large skillet over medium heat until golden brown and toasted, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Melt caramel bits in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth, about 2 minutes. Stir coconut into caramel. Press a spoonful of caramel-coconut mixture into the top of each cookie.
• Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth, about 60 seconds. Dip the base of each cookie into melted chocolate and place dipped cookies on parchment paper until chocolate sets. Drizzle chocolate over the top of each cookie.

SAMOA COOKIE SHEET CAKE

Steps:

• Grease 18x13x1 sheet pan with sides.
• In a pot, combine butter, water, cocoa and shortening. Bring to a boil and then add flour and sugar. Stir well.

• When cake comes out of oven, immediately poke holes in it with a fork and pour this on the hot cake.
• Sprinkle on the toasted coconut right away.
• In the microwave, melt the caramels and cream until smooth. Pour over the coconut.
• Melt the chocolate chips and drizzle all over the caramel. Let set before cutting.
• This was a bit challenging to cut but I had better luck with a serrated knife to "saw" through the ooey gooey goodness of the caramel!
