What can I say but, Mmmmmmmm.........I make the same recipe, but make mine in a 9" pie plate and serve it as pie instead of brownies. -
These were very good!! I followed the directions, only i lined my 8x8 pan with foil so the caramel would'nt stick. I also added 2 tsp. of instant coffee granules to the brownie base which made the brownie killer(only do this if you like coffee). I used 25 caramels since i was not sure how much 227 g was and my bag said 314 g. and I did not add all the chocolate chips on top, just a sprinkle b/c this looked so rich already. Very good, will make this again Thank you Rhonda J =)

About me....well...let's see,right now I am a married, stay-at-home Mom to two beautiful children, a 10 year old daughter and a 7 year old son....they are the "lights" of my life, which I think I pretty much spent waiting for them! I feel so very lucky (and truly blessed) to be their "Mommy".
I don't know that I have a fave cookbook, (and I have rarely opened one of the many I have, since finding Zaar.) I just LOVE recipes and have been "acquiring" them since I was a teenager! Actually I think I bought my first cookbook in like grade two or three, a cookie recipe book from one of those scholastic book orders!
