Best Caramel Brownies No Cake Or Brownie Mix Recipes

CARAMEL BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350. Grease a 9x13 pan and set aside.
• Melt the caramel and 1/3 cup evaporated milk and stir in a small saucepan over low heat until melted and incorporated.
• In a mixing bowl combine cake mix, 1/3 cup evaporated milk, melted butter and flour. Press half of the mix into the 9x13 inch dish and bake for 6 minutes.
• Remove pan from oven and sprinkle chocolate chips.
• Pour the caramel on top of the chocolate chips.
• Top with the remaining brownie batter on the top of the caramel and bake for an additional 15-18 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let cool completely so that the caramel can set. I also find that if you let it cool and place in the fridge it helps to set up right before cutting.

CARAMEL BROWNIES MADE WITH A CAKE MIX RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Peel caramels and place in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir in 1/2 cup evaporated milk. Heat and stir until all caramels are melted (you can also do this on the stove-top over low heat- just keep stirring until caramels are melted).
• Grease a 9 x 13 inch pan (and when I say grease it, I mean it! These tend to be sticky, so grease it well. You may also want to grease the sides of the pan to prevent the caramel from sticking).
• In a large mixing bowl, mix together cake mix, 1/3 cup evaporated milk, melted butter, and chopped pecans. The dough will be VERY thick and kind of hard to stir- that means that you made it right! Place 1/2 of the batter in prepared baking pan. I sprayed my fingers with non-stick cooking spray and spread it in the bottom of the pan using my hands.
• Bake for 8 minutes.
• Place the remaining batter into the fridge. Remove brownies from oven and sprinkle chocolate chips on top. Drizzle caramel sauce over chocolate chips. Remove brownie mix from refrigerator. Using a teaspoon, make small balls with the batter and smash flat. Very carefully, place on top of the caramel sauce until the top is completely covered. With the batter being so thick, I places little teaspoonfuls all over the top and then carefully pushed them together to cover the caramel. It doesn't look very pretty, but they will still taste amazing.
• Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes. Remove and let cool. It is best to wait until the brownies are cooled to cut into them (it will be hard, but trust me- they are so worth the wait!).

Steps:

• Mix (by hand) cake mix with 1/4 cup evaporated milk and 1/2 cup melted butter; add nuts if using.
• Batter will be stiff.
• Press half of batter into bottom of 9 x 13-inch pan. I use wax paper and a small rolling pin to make this process easier.
• Bake at 350° for 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt caramels with 1/2 cup evaporated milk in microwave or in double boiler.
• Remove bottom layer from oven and sprinkle with chocolate chips, then drizzle with caramel.

• Bake 18- 20 minutes.
• Let cool before cutting.
