Instructions
Preparation Steps
Preheat your oven to the temperature recommended on the brownie mix package. Lightly spray a 9" x 9" baking pan with non-stick cooking spray or line it with parchment paper to ensure the brownies are easy to remove.
Prepare the brownie mix according to the package directions. Pour half of the prepared batter into the baking pan and bake for 6 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the caramel bits or squares with the heavy cream. Microwave for 25 seconds, then stir well. Repeat this process until the caramels are completely melted and smooth.
Evenly spread the chopped Snickers bars over the bottom half of the baked brownies in the pan. Drizzle all of the melted caramel evenly over the Snickers layer.
Carefully pour the remaining brownie batter over the Snickers and caramel layer. Use a spatula to gently spread the batter evenly across the top, covering the filling.
Bake the brownies for the remaining cooking time specified on the brownie package, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, free of uncooked batter.
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for several minutes before slicing. They are easier to cut once cooled, but are also delicious served warm.
Notes
For an extra touch, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of the caramel layer before adding the final brownie batter. These brownies are perfect for parties, potlucks, or as a special treat for movie night!
