Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted: Provides richness and moisture to the pie crust.
1 large egg: Acts as a binder, helping to hold the ingredients together.
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed: Adds sweetness and a hint of caramel flavor.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract: Enhances the flavor profile with a warm aroma.
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour: Forms the base of the crust for a sturdy texture.
1/4 teaspoon salt: Balances the sweetness and enhances overall flavor.
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (for sprinkle): Adds chocolatey goodness to the filling.
1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut: Provides a chewy texture and tropical flavor.
2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk: Makes the filling rich and creamy while adding sweetness.
4 to 5 ounces salted caramel sauce: Drizzled for an extra layer of sweetness and flavor.
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted for drizzling): Ties the whole pie together with a decadent finish.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter for about 1 minute on high power. Be careful not to overheat.
Allow the melted butter to cool slightly, then whisk in the egg, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the all-purpose flour and salt until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are firm.
Remove the pie from the oven and sprinkle 3/4 cup of chocolate chips over the crust. Layer the shredded coconut on top.
Drizzle the sweetened condensed milk and salted caramel sauce over the coconut layer.
Return the pie to the oven and bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until the edges are bubbling and golden.
Once baked, allow the pie to cool in the dish on a wire rack.
Melt the reserved chocolate chips in the microwave, then drizzle over the cooled pie.
Let the pie cool for at least 4 hours before slicing for best results.
