Time 1h

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (14 ounce) bag individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped, divided
1 (19.8 ounce) package fudge brownie mix (such as Betty Crocker®)
½ cup vegetable oil
¼ cup water
2 eggs
¼ cup butter
1 tablespoon milk
1 cup chopped pretzels
¾ cup chocolate chips
⅓ cup chocolate-covered toffee bits

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Cut 9 caramels in half.
  • Beat brownie mix, vegetable oil, water, and eggs together in a bowl until batter is well-combined. Pour batter into prepared baking dish. Place caramel halves in 3 rows of 6 in the brownie batter so that there will be a caramel half in the center of each brownie.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out almost clean, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Melt remaining caramels, butter, and milk together in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each melting, for 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave). Pour caramel mixture over warm brownies and top with pretzels, chocolate chips, and toffee bits. Cool completely before cutting into squares.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature butter and eggs: This will help the ingredients blend together more easily and create a smooth batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Don't overbake the brownies: Overbaking will make the brownies dry. Bake them just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help them hold their shape better.
  • Be generous with the caramel and pretzels: The more caramel and pretzels you use, the more delicious the brownies will be.

Conclusion:

These caramel pretzel brownies are the perfect combination of sweet, salty, and chewy. They're easy to make and always a hit with friends and family. So next time you're looking for a delicious and indulgent treat, give these brownies a try!
