Provided by Jane Hornby

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert, Treat

Time 50m

Yield Makes 16 larger or 32 bite-sized brownies

Number Of Ingredients 9

200g unsalted butter, plus a little extra for greasing
100g chocolate, 70% cocoa solids
100g chocolate, 50% cocoa solids
397g can Carnation caramel
1 tsp flaky sea salt, plus a little extra for the top
200g golden caster sugar
4 medium eggs, at room temperature
130g plain flour
50g cocoa powder

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
  • Grease then line a 23cm square traybake tin with baking parchment.
  • Melt 200g unsalted butter in a medium pan, break in 100g chocolate (70% cocoa solids) and 100g chocolate (50% cocoa solids), then remove the pan from the heat and wait for the cubes to melt.
  • In a small bowl, mix 175g Carnation caramel from a 397g can with 1 tsp sea salt - it will loosen up.
  • Put the rest of the caramel in a large bowl with 200g golden caster sugar and 4 medium eggs, and beat with an electric hand mixer or balloon whisk until even. Whisk in the chocolate and butter.
  • In another bowl, combine 130g plain flour, 50g cocoa powder and a good pinch of table salt, then sift this on top of the chocolate mix. Beat briefly until smooth.
  • Pour half the brownie batter into the tin and level it with a spatula.
  • Using a teaspoon, spoon half of the salted caramel on top of the batter layer in 5 thick, evenly spaced stripes.
  • Spoon the rest of the brownie batter on top and smooth it out, trying not to disturb the caramel beneath. Top with the rest of the caramel in the same stripy fashion. Drag a skewer or tip of a knife through the caramel to make a feathered pattern on the top.
  • Scatter with a little more sea salt, then bake for 25-30 mins or until risen all the way to the middle with a firm crust on top. When ready, the brownie will jiggle just a little when you shake the tin.
  • Let it cool completely in the tin, then cut into squares.

OOEY GOOEY CHOCOLATE CARAMEL BROWNIES



Ooey Gooey Chocolate Caramel Brownies image

These are the greatest brownies ever. Once you taste them you will never go back. I've tweaked this recipe from Canadian Living's Best Muffins & More cookbook, and now it's at the point where my family and friends have declared me the Goddess of Brownies. One friend even told me these brownies were better than sex. Seriously, they're that good.

Provided by Nieraa

Categories     Bar Cookie

Time 50m

Yield 16-24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup butter, cubed
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
4 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup whipped cream
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups mini chocolate chips (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400F (200C).
  • Take two saucepans of roughly equal size. Fill the smaller one about halfway with water. Put the other one on top. Put them on a burner and turn it to just below boiling. You could also use a double boiler.
  • Melt butter and chocolate together in the saucepan, and remove saucepans from heat. Dump out the water from the bottom one and dry it out.
  • Stir the granulated sugar into the chocolate mixture until it's mixed nicely. Slowly add the eggs and the vanilla. Next, stir in the flour and salt.
  • Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch cake pan and bake for 12 minutes. (The batter won't be cooked through).
  • Meanwhile, in the bottom saucepan, boil the cream, brown sugar, and butter for 3 minutes.
  • Drizzle the brownies with the sugar mixture. Do this slowly or it'll go through the surface of the brownie.
  • Bake the brownies for another 8-10 minutes. They should be golden, not browned.
  • Sprinkle the brownies with the mini chocolate chips (if using,) give them a moment to melt, and then swirl them with the knife.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your brownies. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will result in brownies that are tough and chewy. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overbaking the brownies will result in dry, crumbly brownies.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. Cutting the brownies while they are still warm will result in brownies that are messy and difficult to cut.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the brownies for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Chocolate chunk caramel brownies are a delicious and decadent treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect chocolate chunk caramel brownies every time.
