1Family size box mix browniethe box should be around 18-20oz
1tablespoonvegetable oil
½cupwater
1egg
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 9x9 pan with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray (Don’t think you can get away with just greasing your pan, your brownies will be a nightmare to get out without parchment paper!) Mix brownie mix with egg, oil, and water. Spread approximately ⅔ of brownie batter into lined pan (reserving ⅓) and bake 8-12 minutes until brownies are set.
In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, stir together caramel bits and sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Once smooth, stir in a heaping teaspoon of coarse sea salt. Spread approximately half of the caramel mixture on top of the brownies.
After spreading the caramel mixture on the baked brownies, sprinkle ½ cup of semisweet chocolate chips on top of caramel and brownies.
Return the saucepan with the remaining caramel to low heat and stir in 1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips until smooth and combined. You should a thick truffle-like mixture starting to ball up.
Spread the chocolate-caramel mixture on top of the brownies and top with the reserved brownie batter. Bake 12-16 minutes until the top brownie layer is completely cooked.
Notes
If you like super fudgy brownies, ignore the ingredient ratios on the back of the mix. Instead of using the recommended ratios add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1 egg, and ½ cup of water.
