Try these sinfully good, super simple chocolate chunk brownies stuffed with homemade caramel sauce made from candies and cream!

I probably have a few more guilty pleasures than most! Among my many are wearing pj’s all day, piling heaps of fluffy freshly grated Parmesan on a big bowl of pasta, and crawling into a clean, crisp white bed with a good book. My biggest guilty please, by far, is savoring scrumptious chocolate! Even better when it’s tucked into a brownie with ooey-gooey caramel sauce made from chewy candies. How easy is that?

To make these mouthwatering brownies, I just used a chocolate chunk boxed mix. If you prefer to make the brownie from scratch, here are recipes for my Best Cocoa Brownies and Gluten-Free Fudgy Pecan Brownies.

Whatever you use, start out by baking half the brownie batter first. Make your caramel sauce with candies and heavy cream, spread it on top, then layer on the remaining brownie batter, and bake!

These devilishly delish caramel brownies are definitely my newest guilty pleasure, and once you try them they’ll be yours, too! They’re SO easy and absolutely the best dessert to come out of my oven lately.

Toss some chopped pecans on top before baking for a truly amazing turtle brownie, or sprinkle a little salt into the caramel sauce for a sweet-salty twist!

Print Recipe

Easy Chocolate Chunk Caramel Brownies

Yield: Makes 12-15 brownies

Ingredients:

Nonstick cooking spray

1 16 oz. box chocolate chunk brownie mix

Eggs, vegetable oil and water for brownie batter

14 oz. chewy caramel candies, unwrapped (recommended: Kraft or Werther's)

1/3 cup heavy cream

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9 x 9 pan with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray.

Prepare brownie batter as directed on package. Pour a little less than half of the batter into the pan and spread evenly. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove pan from oven and let cool 15 minutes. Maintain oven temperature.

Meanwhile, set a medium saucepan over medium-low heat; add caramels and heavy cream. Stir frequently until melted and smooth. Immediately pour caramel over brownies and spread evenly. Spread remaining brownie batter over caramel, spreading to cover. (If your brownie batter is very thick, 30 seconds of microwaving should thin it out.)

Bake for 25 more minutes. Remove pan to a wire rack and cool brownies completely in the pan. With a thin knife, loosen caramel along sides of pan. Using foil, lift brownies from pan and cut into squares for serving.

Enjoy!

    hi, love the recipe!!!
    just wondering if i can use the dulce de leche can , from la Lechera (mexican food aisle) instead of caramel candies…So much easy :)

    • Georgia — May 11th, 2013 @ 5:09 pm

      Never tried it, I’m sorry!

  25. Amy says

    It’s a good recipe but it’s VERY sweet. The caramel in this recipe is mad thick. I recommend dialing it back a few ounces if you don’t want tummy trouble.

    Good post but I was wondering if you could write a litte more on this subject?

    I’d be very grateful if you could elaborate a little bit further.
    Thank you!

    I precisely had to say thanks yet again. I do not know the things that I would have handled in the absence of those recommendations discussed by you relating to my problem. It has been a alarming dilemma in my position, however , noticing the very specialised fashion you handled it forced me to jump over delight. I will be grateful for this advice and then believe you know what an amazing job you are providing instructing people today thru your web page. More than likely you have never got to know any of us.
