Salted Caramel Brownies
These Salted Caramel Brownies are sweet, fudgy and gooey with a rich chocolate and salted caramel flavour. The salted caramel sauce is used as a separate layer in the batter and also to serve on top
Servings: 9 square
Ingredients
- 225 g semi-sweet chocolate
- 110 g unsalted butter
- 200 g granulated sugar
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp espresso
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 large eggs room temperature
- 95 g flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F (180).
- Line an 8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper.
- Chop up the chocolate into small pieces.
- Place butter and chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water and stir until almost melted.
- Remove from heat and stir until completely melted.
- Add sugar and salt; whisk until smooth. Add vanilla and espresso and mix well.
- Whisk in the eggs, one by one until just combined.
- Fold in the flour with a spatula until smooth. Do not overmix.
- Pour half of the brownie batter into the baking dish, spreading it evenly to the edges. Pour the salted caramel sauce over the batter, but leave out the edges. Save some salted caramel sauce for later.
- Spoon the rest of the brownie batter over the caramel.
- Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Do not over bake, otherwise your brownies will be dry.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool down completely (2 -3 hours).
- Cut into 9 squares and serve with the rest of the salted caramel sauce.

These brownies look SO good. Love all that drizzled salted caramel sauce over the top especially!
Hello Fabio, I tried this recipe and OMG!!!! It’s so good..the goodness of the caramel with the richness of the chocolate- it can’t get any better!!! The only step, where I had difficulty following was number 12- the wait. Wonder if it would last 3 hours, to taste it after cooling down!!! Thanks a lot. Keep up the good job.
Viele Grüße aus Deutschland!!!
