Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×9-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the German chocolate cake mix, melted butter, and 1/3 cup of evaporated milk. Stir until well combined. The mixture will be thick and fudgy.
Press half of the brownie mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly to form the base layer.
Bake the base layer in the preheated oven for 8 minutes, then remove and let it cool slightly.
While the base is baking, unwrap the caramels and place them in a medium saucepan. Add the remaining 1/3 cup of evaporated milk.
Melt the caramels over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until smooth and fully combined. Remove from heat.
Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the baked brownie base, ensuring full coverage.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans and chocolate chips over the caramel layer.
Using the remaining brownie mixture, drop spoonfuls over the caramel and chocolate layer. Gently spread it out as best as you can; it’s okay if some caramel peeks through.
Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20-22 minutes, or until the top brownie layer is set.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares. Cooling helps the caramel set and makes slicing easier.
Serve and watch everyone fall in love with these irresistibly gooey, decadent brownies!
