German Chocolate Brownies With Coconut Pecan Filling

"These German Chocolate Brownies with Coconut Pecan Filling skip the layer cake entirely. A cooked coconut filling made with toasted pecans and sweetened condensed milk gets sandwiched between two layers of a semi-sweet chocolate brownie batter, so every bite has that classic German chocolate flavor in a fudgy, sturdy bar. Make them a day ahead and refrigerate before cutting for clean slices. German chocolate cake is a Southern classic for a reason, but layers take real time to bake and cool, and cutting neat slices for a crowd is never as easy as it looks. This recipe keeps the same coconut pecan filling, made with toasted pecans and sweetened condensed milk, baked into the center of a semi-sweet chocolate brownie instead of frosting it on top of a cake."
