When you combine chocolate, coconut, espresso, and pie crust, your heart will sing and your stomach will do a happy dance over these delicious nutty German chocolate pie squares!

This recipe was created by an incredibly sweet and uber talented friend of mine.  Marnely Rodriguez-Murray is a formally trained chef and the blogger behind Cooking with Books.  She and I first met on Twitter, but it didn't take long before we were BFFs and hooked up across all of our social media accounts.  Why?  Well, because in addition to our love and passion for cooking and baking, we both also shared a love for bacon, and Nutella! In fact, Nelly loves Nutella so much that when she became engaged to be married to her now-husband, Brian, her friends and I got together to throw her a virtual engagement party, and I made her these Nutella Mousse Pie with Caramelized Bananas to celebrate the occasion with. Nelly knows that I'm allergic to coconut, so she offered to create these nutty German chocolate pie squares for you.  I hope that you enjoy the recipe, and I really hope you'll swing over to Nelly's blog and check out more of her amazing recipes!  Thanks for helping me out today, Nelly. I puffy heart you!
