Step-by-step instruction without your screen going to sleep

  • 2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate morsels
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/3 cup caramel sauce, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt

Utensils

  • Medium Bowl
  • 9-inch square baking pan
  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.

  • Step 2

    Assemble the hand mixer attachment on the power base, then install the beaters.

  • Step 3

    In a microwave-safe, medium bowl, add the butter. Microwave until melted, about 1 minute. Remove bowl from microwave and add chocolate chips and sugar. Press power then the up arrow to mix on speed 2 until the chocolate is completely melted and combined with the sugar and butter.

  • Step 4

    Add the vanilla extract. Add 1 egg at a time, mixing after each until all are fully combined.

  • Step 5

    Add the cocoa powder, flour, kosher salt, and baking powder. Press power to begin mixing on speed 1 and then gradually increase to speed 4. Mix until just combined, about 1 minute.

  • Step 6

    Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan. Drizzle half the caramel sauce over the brownie batter, then swirl the caramel sauce into the batter with a knife. Place the pan in the oven and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes.

  • Step 7

    When baking is complete, remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle with sea salt. Allow to cool completely, then top with the remaining caramel sauce.
