Ingredients
- 170 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 150 grams caramel sauce
- 1 teaspoons flaky sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and stir until smooth. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and slightly thickened.
Step 4
Slowly pour the slightly cooled chocolate mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, whisking constantly to combine.
Step 5
Sift the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet ingredients. Gently fold the mixture with a spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
Step 7
Drizzle half of the caramel sauce over the batter, using a knife or toothpick to gently swirl it into the mixture.
Step 8
Pour the remaining brownie batter over the caramel layer and spread it evenly. Drizzle the remaining caramel sauce on top and swirl it again for a marbled effect.
Step 9
Sprinkle the flaky sea salt evenly over the top layer.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (do not overbake).
Step 11
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, lift them out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and slice into 9 squares.
Step 12
Serve and enjoy the perfectly balanced richness of chocolate and salted caramel!
