Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor. Semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips are great choices.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough brownies.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them into bars. This will help prevent them from falling apart.
- For the caramel fluff, use a good-quality caramel sauce. You can also make your own caramel sauce if you prefer.
- Be careful not to overbeat the cream cheese mixture. Overbeating can cause the mixture to curdle.
- Chill the caramel fluff for at least 30 minutes before using it. This will help it to set and become more firm.
- When assembling the brownie bites, use a small spoon to drop the caramel fluff onto the brownies. This will help prevent the caramel fluff from spreading too much.
- Serve the brownie bites immediately or store them in the refrigerator for later.
