Salted caramel brownies

Jazz up plain brownies with some caramel sauce to make them ooey, gooey and irresistible! You’ll love these salted caramel brownies!

Remember the epic small-batch salted caramel sauce I just posted? If not, click on the link and get ready to drool. Well, I finally found a swoon-worthy recipe to showcase the sticky, gooey caramel sauce I made.

I’m a strange bird and like to eat my ice cream plain (no toppings!), so I didn’t want to use my caramel sauce for that. Instead, I decided to add them to brownies to make them that much more decadent and irresistible.

I brought these salted caramel brownies to a party and they were devoured in about 0.01 seconds flat. The gooey caramel made for an irresistible center, while the brownies themselves were soft and very chewy. We loved these salted caramel brownies so much that I made a second batch a few days later.

These definitely are one of my favorite brownies to date. If you have caramel sauce, use this recipe for brownies. They are the perfect texture to complement the luscious caramel. Just make sure you hide a few pieces for yourself because they will go very quickly.
