  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract

      4. Place 1/3 of batter in a small bowl. Add coconut and almond extract, mix to combine.
      5. Add melted chocolate to remaining batter. Blend well and spread evenly into bottom of prepared pan.
      6. Spoon coconut batter carefully over chocolate mixture, and spread to form a thin, even layer.
