Time 2h15m

Yield 20 brownies

Number Of Ingredients 12

Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking dish
Two 18.3-ounce boxes fudge brownie mix
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne
1 1/3 cups vegetable oil
5 large eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups crushed pretzel slims (about 3 cups whole slims), plus 20 whole slims, for topping
Whipped cream, for serving
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Coarse salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • For the brownies: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Whisk together the brownie mix and cayenne in a large bowl. Add the vegetable oil, eggs and 1/2 cup water and stir until just combined; do not overmix. Stir in the crushed pretzels. Spread the mixture in the prepared dish and top with the whole pretzels in a 4-by-5 grid. Bake until the brownies are puffed and a tester inserted about 2 inches from the edge comes out with a few crumbs, 55 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool on a rack.
  • For the caramel: Put the sugar in a small saucepan, drizzle with 2 tablespoons water and set over medium heat. Cook, without stirring, until the sugar melts. Continue to cook, swirling the pan occasionally so the edges don't burn, until the sugar syrup is a dark amber, about 8 minutes.
  • Whisk in the butter, then the cream. Return to a simmer, just to combine, then remove from the heat. Whisk in the vanilla. Pour the caramel into a spouted glass measuring cup and let cool until the mixture is thick enough to drizzle, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Drizzle the caramel over the brownies and sprinkle lightly with the coarse salt. Let cool completely in the baking dish before cutting into squares, each with a whole pretzel on top. Serve topped with whipped cream.

These brownies were a bit too salty for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would reduce the amount of salt next time. Otherwise, they were easy to make and turned out perfectly.

These brownies were a bit too dense for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would add more flour next time. Otherwise, they were easy to make and turned out perfectly.
