Description
These brownies are perfect for any occasion, and they’re sure to impress your friends and family!
Ingredients
- 34 (one 269g bag) caramels, unwrapped
- 1/2 cup evaporated milk
- 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped semi-sweet chocolate (chocolate chips are fine!)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- Fleur de sel, for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9 x 9-inch baking pan with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a small non-stick saucepan over medium heat, combine the caramels and evaporated milk. Heat and whisk until the caramels are melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a separate medium non-stick saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the butter, sugar, cocoa powder and salt. Cook for about 2 minutes until the butter melts, remove from heat, and whisk in the vanilla and chopped semi-sweet chocolate.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and add the whisked eggs into the saucepan, whisking quickly to to combine. Stir in the flour with a rubber spatula.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and evenly distribute the batter. Add the caramel sauce on top of the batter and then, using a knife, swirl the caramel into the batter with a butter knife. I swirled back and forth several times.
- Place the baking dish into the oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, until the caramel top is bubbling and the sides of the brownies look cooked.
- Remove the baking dish from the oven, sprinkle with fleur de sel, and let it cool to room temperature before transferring it into the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving
