  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 16 brookies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 100g dark chocolate, melted
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs (or 1/2 cup yogurt or 2 flax eggs)
  • 1 cup grated coconut (fresh or desiccated)
  • 1/2 cup condensed milk
  • 1 tbsp ghee
  • 1/4 tsp cardamom powder
  • Optional: 1 tbsp coconut cream powder
  • Optional: 2 tbsp chopped pistachios or almonds
  • Optional: 1 tsp rosewater or pinch of saffron

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking pan.

  3. Pour brownie batter into the lined pan and set aside.
  4. Make burfi topping: In a pan, combine grated coconut, condensed milk, ghee, and cardamom. Cook until sticky but not dry. Let cool slightly.
  5. Gently spread the coconut burfi mix over the brownie layer.

  8. Garnish with powdered sugar, toasted coconut flakes, or rose petals if desired.

Notes

Use store-bought coconut burfi for convenience. Microwave with 1–2 tsp milk or coconut cream if it’s too dry. For eggless version, substitute eggs with yogurt or flaxseed meal + water. Store in fridge for 7 days or freeze for 2 months.
