I made this for my DH's birthday & it was a HIT! No baking chocolate on hand, so I used 6T unsweetened cocoa powder mixed with 2T vegetable oil. Substituted coconut for the nuts, spreading that on top before the chocolate chips. Ended up with 1/2 toasted and 1/2 moist coconut. Baked @ 325F in a dark Pyrex dish for 40 minutes. LOVELY! Almost like a loaded brownie. Served with vanilla ice cream. This is a keeper, Anna. Thank you!!!
