Recipe Card
ingredients
- 1 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup oil
- 7 tablespoons butter
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 tablepoons heavy cream
Method
Step 1
To make the brownies, preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease a 8X8 inch baking pan.
Step 2
Combine 1 1/4 cup brown sugar, oil, 3 tablespoons melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and unsweetened cocoa powder. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and baking powder. Add this dry mixture to the wet one, and stir until just combined.
Step 3
Pour the batter into your prepared baking pan, and bake for 35 - 40 minutes - or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out with only a few crumbs stuck to it. Remove them from your oven and set them on a wire rack to cool.
Step 4
To make the salted caramel sauce, place the remaining butter, the remaining brown sugar, the heavy cream, and the salt in a saucepan. Begin to melt the butter and combine the ingredients at a medium high heat, stirring frequently.
Step 5
Continue to stir as you bring the mixture to a boil for 2 minutes. Then, turn off the heat, and pour the salted caramel sauce into a bowl. Set it aside for a few minutes to cool and thicken up a bit.
Step 6
Use a spoon to drizzle the sauce over your brownies. Use a sharp knife to cut them into squares and enjoy!
