Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 4 unit large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 40 units soft caramels
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking pan. Line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until fully melted and smooth. Let it cool slightly.
In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, whisking to combine.
Sift in the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Fold gently with a spatula until just combined, making sure not to overmix.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven.
While the bottom layer bakes, melt the caramels and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Spread the melted caramel evenly over the partially baked brownie layer. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes.
Pour the remaining brownie batter over the caramel layer, gently spreading it to cover the caramel completely.
Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the brownie (on the sides) comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, melt the dark chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Drizzle the melted dark chocolate over the top of the brownies. Allow the drizzle to set before cutting into squares.
Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Cut into 16 squares and serve.
