Preheat your oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F). Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add the semisweet chocolate chips and stir until smooth. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and glossy.
Gradually pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar mixture, whisking constantly to combine.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the bowl. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in half of the chopped walnuts, reserving the other half for topping.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the soft caramels and heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until the mixture is smooth and pourable.
Drizzle the caramel over the brownie batter in zigzag patterns. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the caramel into the batter for a marbled effect.
Sprinkle the remaining walnuts on top of the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang. Cut into squares and serve.
