Chocolate Caramel Brownies


Okay, so if you are against using boxed cake mixes, please don’t look any further. But as for me, every once in a while, I think they are perfect and so incredibly useful. In this recipe for instance, I use a boxed German Chocolate Cake mix and let me tell you, these are the best brownies ever! The chocolate and chewy caramel blend together effortlessly and end in a simply indulgent dessert. Yum! I had these at my Aunt’s house years ago and I’ve been making them ever since. They are my go to brownie and I crave them all the time. So simple, yet so delicious!

Chocolate Caramel Brownies

1 box German Chocolate Cake mix
3/4 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1 bag wrapped caramels (50 individually wrapped caramels
1/3 cup evaporated milk

1. Mix together the cake mix, melted butter and 1/2 cup evaporated milk. Mix until well incorporated, it will be thick. Press half of batter into a 9×13 inch greased pan and bake at 350 degrees for 7 minutes.
2. While batter is baking, melt caramels and 1/3 cup evaporated milk in a saucepan until creamy. When brownies are done, poor caramel on top of the cooked portion of brownies. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of caramel. Dot the remaining brownie mix on top of chips and caramel. Return to oven and bake for another 11 minutes. Cool in refrigerator for about 2 hours.
