Caramel Brownies

Caramel + Chocolate + Brownie Mix =  Rich and chocolate dessert that leaves me saying: Oh My Gooey-ness!

Prep Time: 20 min

Cook Time: 20 min

Serves: 24 caramel brownies

Ingredients

• 1 box of German Chocolate Cake Mix
• 1 1/2 sticks of butter, softened
• 2/3 cups evaporated milk (I used lowfat for a healthier version of this recipe
• 14 oz of unwrapped soft caramels (I used Brach's Milk Maid® Caramels)
• 6 oz of semi-sweet chocolate chips

Baking Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom of a 13 x 9-inch pan with cooking spray.
2. In a medium bowl, stir brownie mix, 1/3 c evaporated milk, and butter until well blended.
3. Pour 1/2 of the batter into the pan. Bake for 10 minutes at 350°F.
4. In the meantime, melt unwrapped caramels and evaporated milk in a medium saucepan over low heat.
5. Take the baked brownie base out of the oven. Sprinkle chocolate chips on the baked brownie base. Then pour the melted caramel mixture over the chocolate chips. Drop the remaining brownie batter by spoonfuls over the top and bake 15-20 minutes until toothpick inserted into brownies comes out clean.
6. Cool in the pan on a wire rack before serving. Store covered at room temperature.
7. Enjoy!
