Easy-peasy Caramel Brownies (From a Cake Mix)
Fudgy, luscious, and full of chocolate and caramel deliciousness, these caramel brownies made with a cake mix are the perfect sweet treat. Absolutely scrumptious!
Ingredients
- 11 oz bag of Caramels
- 2/3 cup Evaporated Milk divided
- 15 oz package of Devil's Food Cake Mix
- 3/4 cup butter softened
- 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans or your nut of choice, divided.
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. Unwrap the caramels and combine them with 1/3 cup evaporated milk on top of a double boiler; cook, stirring constantly until the caramels are completely melted. This process can also be done in the microwave if that is more convenient. Cook in 30-second intervals, stirring the mixture in between, until well-blended and the caramels have melted. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
- Combine the cake mix, remaining 1/3 cup evaporated milk, and butter, mixing with an electric mixer until the dough holds together. Stir in half of the nuts.
- Press half the cake mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking pan. Bake for 7 minutes then remove from the oven. Sprinkle the chocolate chips and the remaining nuts over the crust. Pour the caramel mixture all over the chocolate chips, spreading it evenly.
- Crumble the remaining mixture (it would be sticky) all over the caramel. Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 24-25 minutes or until the brownie is set. Cool completely and slice into small bars about 20-24 pieces.
