Description

Fudgy Chocolate Caramel Brownies combine deep chocolate richness with luscious caramel sweetness in a decadent, chewy treat. These brownies feature gooey caramel layers nestled between dense, fudgy chocolate batter, offering a perfect balance of textures and flavors that melt in your mouth. Ideal for both special occasions and everyday indulgence, they are easy to make and customizable for various dietary preferences.

Ingredients

Scale

Chocolate Brownie Batter

  • 200g quality dark chocolate (at least 60% cocoa)
  • 150g unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Caramel Layer

  • 3/4 cup caramel sauce (homemade or store-bought)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a square baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal and cleanup.
  2. Melt Chocolate and Butter: Gently melt the dark chocolate and butter together using a double boiler or microwave, stirring frequently until smooth and glossy.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk the sugar and eggs until thick and pale. Blend in the vanilla extract and the cooled chocolate-butter mixture.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: Carefully fold in the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt, mixing just enough to combine while preserving the fudgy consistency of the batter.
  5. Layer the Batter and Caramel: Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared pan. Spread the caramel sauce evenly over the batter, then top with the remaining brownie batter, smoothing it out evenly.
  6. Bake and Cool: Bake for 30-35 minutes until the edges are set but the center remains slightly gooey. Allow the brownies to cool completely so the caramel sets perfectly for clean slicing.

Notes

  • Use room temperature eggs for easier blending and a smooth batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid cakey brownies; minimal mixing preserves fudginess.
  • Start checking for doneness around 30 minutes due to oven variations.
  • Choose high-quality chocolate and caramel for the best flavor.
  • Cool brownies completely before cutting to prevent crumbling and to achieve clean squares.
