Decadent Caramel Brownies

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Decadent Caramel Brownies.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and generously greasing a 9x13-inch baking dish to ensure your delicious creation doesn’t stick.

2. Step 2

   In a sturdy saucepan, combine the unwrapped caramels with 1/3 cup of evaporated milk.

3. Step 3

   Set the heat to low and stir continuously until the mixture transforms into a smooth, velvety caramel.

4. Step 4

   Once it’s ready, take it off the heat and let it sit for a moment while you prepare the next steps.

5. Step 5

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, melted butter, and the remaining 1/3 cup of evaporated milk.

6. Step 6

   Use your hands to mix everything together until a soft dough forms, inviting the rich chocolate aroma to fill your kitchen.

7. Step 7

   Now, take half of this delightful dough and press it firmly into the bottom of your prepared baking dish, creating a sturdy crust that will hold all the delicious layers to come.

8. Step 8

   Pop the crust into the preheated oven and let it bake for about 10 minutes, just enough time to set the foundation for your brownies.

9. Step 9

   Once the crust is out of the oven, sprinkle a generous layer of chocolate chips evenly over the warm surface, allowing them to melt slightly.

10. Step 10

    Next, pour that luscious caramel mixture over the chocolate chips, letting it cascade down and fill every nook and cranny.

11. Step 11

    Crumble the remaining dough over the caramel layer, ensuring it covers the entire surface like a cozy blanket.

12. Step 12

    Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 15 to 18 minutes, or until the top is beautifully set and slightly golden.

13. Step 13

    Once baked, let your brownies cool in the refrigerator for a bit; this will help the caramel firm up perfectly.

14. Step 14

    When they’re ready, slice them into bars and enjoy the delightful combination of chocolate and caramel in every bite!.
