Fudgy Caramel Cashew Brownies image

Oreos lend flavor and texture to these moist, fudgey brownies. They seem soft, but they're still easy to cut and handle once they've cooled. If baking at high altitude, use the lower of the measurements given for butter, sugar, and baking powder. Cook time includes time for caramel to set.

4 eggs
1 1/4-1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup flour
1/2-1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
20 Oreo cookies, crushed (I use the food processor to crush them)
40 Rolo chocolates, unwrapped & cut in half (chewy caramels covered in milk chocolate, packaged in gold foil - 8 1/2 oz)
3/4 cup roasted cashews, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Grease & flour a 13x9-inch baking pan.
  • In a 1-qt, microwavable bowl, combine baking chocolate, 2/3 cup chocolate chips, and butter, and microwave on HIGH, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth (1 1/2-2 minutes).
  • Allow to cool slightly (about 5 minutes).
  • In a large bowl, beat eggs, sugar, and vanilla at medium speed of electric mixer until smooth.
  • Add melted chocolate and beat until well blended.

  • Immediately sprinkle rolos on top of hot brownies and let stand until the caramels soften (10 minutes).
  • Pull tip of toothpick through softened candy to spread and swirl (won't completely cover tops of brownies).

CARAMEL-CASHEW BROWNIES



Caramel-Cashew Brownies image

These brownies include a fusion of sweet caramel and nuts.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h50m

Yield Ten 2-inch brownies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into 8 pieces plus extra for greasing
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, coarsely chopped
1 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup cake flour, sifted
3/4 cup semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chunks
1/4 cup cream
Approximately 40 store-bought caramels
Pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 to 3/4 cup raw cashews

Steps:

  • Make the brownies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line an 8-inch square baking dish with a sheet of aluminum foil, making sure to cover the corners and sides. Lightly butter the aluminum foil, including corners and sides.
  • In the bowl of a double boiler set over simmering water, combine the butter and chopped unsweetened chocolate. Stirring often, heat until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and stir in the sugar and salt. Add the eggs and vanilla and stir until well blended. Fold in the sifted flour and stir just until the flour disappears. Stir in the semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chunks.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake approximately 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Baking time will be longer if you are using a metal pan. Do not overbake. Transfer the dish to a wire rack and cool completely.
  • Make the Carmel-Cashew Topping: Pour the cream into the bowl of a double boiler set over simmering water. Unwrap caramels and put them into the bowl. Stirring frequently to prevent sticking, combine the cream and caramels until the mixture becomes homogeneous and smooth. Take the mixture off the heat and keep stirring until the caramel becomes a little thicker and the mixture begins to cool down. Add a pinch of salt and the vanilla and stir. Coarsely chop the cashews and fold them into the caramel mixture until nuts are completely coated with caramel. Pour mixture over the top of the cooled brownies and spread evenly.
  • Refrigerate the brownies until the caramel is set, about 30 to 45 minutes. Remove brownies from the pan by grabbing the sides of the aluminum foil and lifting them from the pan. With a serrated knife, cut the brownies into 2-inch squares. These can be stored in an airtight container for 2 days or in a covered container in the refrigerator for 4 days.

Categories     Dessert

Time 50m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces,plus
additional butter, for the pan
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
16 small chocolate-covered caramel candies or 16 pieces Rolo chocolates, halved

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F Line an 8-by-8-by-2-inch baking pan with parchment paper or heavy aluminum foil, making sure the paper or foil extends beyond the edges of the pan; lightly butter the paper or foil.
  • In a heatproof container set over, but not touching, a saucepan of barely simmering water, heat the butter and chocolate, stirring constantly, until the mixture is melted and smooth; remove from the heat; set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
  • In a large bowl beat the eggs and sugar until fluffy and lightened in color, about 1 minute; add the vanilla and mix until combined; add the chocolate mixture and mix just until incorporated; add the flour mixture and mix just until incorporated; the batter should be smooth; using a spatula, fold in the chocolate-covered caramel pieces; spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
  • Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for about 35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs; transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool completely; using a small knife, loosen the sides of the brownies from the pan; carefully lift the paper and the whole uncut brownie in 1 piece from the pan; remove and discard the paper; cut the brownie into whatever size you see fit to indulge inches.

Tips:

  • For fudgy brownies, use melted butter instead of oil. Butter adds a richer flavor and texture to the brownies.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in tough, chewy brownies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the brownies bake evenly.
  • Don't overbake the brownies. Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly brownies. Bake just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help prevent them from falling apart.
  • For a gooey caramel center, use a combination of brown sugar and corn syrup. The brown sugar will add a rich, molasses flavor, while the corn syrup will help keep the caramel soft and chewy.
  • To make sure the caramel doesn't burn, stir it constantly while it's cooking.
  • Add the cashews to the brownies just before baking. This will prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the pan.

Conclusion:

These fudgy caramel cashew brownies are the perfect treat for any occasion. They're rich, chewy, and gooey, with a delicious caramel center and crunchy cashew topping. Follow these tips to make sure your brownies turn out perfectly every time. Enjoy!
