Directions

1

Heat convection oven to 300°F (standard oven: 350°F). Lightly spray 16 (7-inch) cast iron skillets with 1/2-inch sides with vegetable cooking spray. Place parchment paper on sheet pans. Set aside.

2

Combine flour, sugar, HERSHEY'S Cocoa, baking powder and salt in 20 qt. bowl of mixer fitted with paddle attachment. Mix on low speed 1 minute. Add butter and 1 lb. 8 oz. HERSHEY'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips; continue mixing until incorporated. Gradually add eggs; continue mixing until batter comes together into one large ball of dough and ingredients are thoroughly combined.

3

Spread 10 oz. dough evenly in each prepared skillet, pressing to approximately 1/2-inch from edge. (Batter will spread as dough bakes.) Sprinkle 2 oz. additional HERSHEY'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips, 2 oz. chopped walnuts and 1 oz. coconut, in order, over batter for each skillet. Drizzle approximately 1 fl. oz. sweetened condensed milk evenly over top of batter for each skillet. Place skillets on prepared sheet pans.

4

Bake 15 to 20 minutes* or until top is golden brown. Cool slightly. Serve warm.

Tip

Step 4: If using convection oven, rotate pans one-half turn (180°) after 10 minutes of baking.
