5-Ingredient Double Chocolate Caramel Crunch Brownies

Chocolate· Desserts· Holiday Recipes· Recipes

This Double Chocolate Caramel Crunch Brownies recipe brought to you in collaboration with Save-A-Lot.

I realize it is quite the claim to call a recipe “the best brownies ever.” However, it’s not me that gave these Double Chocolate Caramel Crunch Brownies that title! Everyone who tries them agrees — these chewy, chocolatey, creamy, crunchy squares are out-of-this-world amazing!

Double Chocolate Caramel Crunch Brownies Ingredients:

  • One box brownie mix
  • 1 can evaporated milk
  • 3 1/2 cups Cocoa Pebbles
  • 40 caramel squares
  • 2-3 ounces white chocolate candy bark or melting chocolate

Directions:

STEP ONE: Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9×9″ baking tray and set aside.

STEP TWO: Place the unwrapped caramel squares in a saucepan with 1/2 cup of the evaporated milk. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes until the caramels are completely melted. Meanwhile, mix the brownie mix with 1/2 cup of the evaporated milk until they form a thick dough.

STEP THREE: Place 1 cup of Cocoa Pebbles on the bottom of the baking tray in an even layer. Spoon out half of the brownie dough overtop of the Cocoa Pebbles. Wet your hands and press down to make it an even layer with full coverage. Sprinkle 1 cup of Cocoa Pebbles over the brownie layer.

STEP FOUR: Pour the melted caramel sauce over the brownies and spread into an even layer. Top with another cup of Cocoa Pebbles.

STEP FIVE: Carefully spoon on the remaining brownie batter, wet your hands and press it into an even layer – attempting to cover the caramel layer as best you can.

STEP SIX: Bake for 35-45 minutes, until the brownies seem set. (It’s okay to undercook these a little bit.)

STEP SEVEN: Once the brownies have cooled, melt the almond bark in a small microwave-safe dish for 35 seconds, stir, and then drizzle over the brownies. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup of Cocoa Pebbles over the almond bark drizzle and let set.

Shuffle flour around the pan by shaking gently and dispose of any remaining flour that remains loose. I would love to try the NO BAKE CARAMEL APPLE PIE.
