Last month we held a fundraiser for Girls Camp for church. Â My cute Jules auctioned off “Dessert of the Month Club” for six months. Â We finally got around to making the first dessert for the winner. Â They requested Caramel Brownies and we were happy to make them!
I’m calling these “Surprise” Caramel Brownies because at first glance they look like regular brownies. Â But when you bite into them, they are chewier and surprise! there’s caramel. Â Yum! They are so good.
Caramel Brownies
Ingredients
- 18.3 oz brownie mix family size
- 11 oz Caramel Bits
- â…“ c heavy whipping cream
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Line a 9x13 baking dish with foil, spray with baking spray.
- Make brownie mix according to directions.
- Pour ½ of the batter into the lined baking pan.
- Set the rest aside.
- Bake brownie mix for 20 minutes.
- Microwave caramel bits and heavy whipping cream for 2 minutes, stopping every 30 seconds to stir.
- After brownies come out of the oven spread the caramel sauce over the top.
- Note: You can reserve a bit to drizzle on the top after the brownies have cooled.
- Then top with the remaining brownie mix.
- Bake for 25 more minutes.
- Let cool completely.
- Remove foil from the pan and cut into squares.
Notes
There are a couple of different options. Â You can add nuts to this (while I love nuts in recipes, I know there’s concern for allergies and not everyone is a fan so I decided against them). Â You can also reserve a little bit of the caramel after it’s melted to drizzle on the top of the cooled off brownies.
Either way, they are easy to make and ohhhh soooo good! Â Grab a cold glass of milk and you are all set. Â Mmmmmm….
