Salted caramel and rich fudgy chocolate is truly a match made in heaven. I can't stop baking this tempting brownie—it's just the thing for an afternoon treat or to take to a friend's house (they'll love you forever!).

Recipe information

  • Yield

    16 Servings

Ingredients

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/4 cups brown sugar
2 eggs
1/3 cup store-bought caramel filling or dulce de leche
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
5 1/4 ounces dark chocolate, chopped (about 2/3 cup)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 325°F. Place the flour, baking powder and sugar in a bowl and mix to combine. Add the eggs, caramel, vanilla and butter and whisk until smooth. Stir in the chocolate and spoon the mixture into an 8" square cake pan lined with non-stick parchment paper. Sprinkle with the sea salt and bake for 40–45 minutes or until just firm around the edges.

    Step 2

    Cut into 16 squares and serve warm or cold.
