Wow, what a way to liven up a boxed brownie mix. Heavenly! -
Really good and rich. Nice combination of sweet and salty. When I make the recipe again, I will remember not to spread the top layers on too thick because I almost wound up with more topping than brownie. The brownie should also ye completely cooled and the caramel topping barley warm. If not, the caramel will run down the sides of the brownie. After I layered on the toppings, I placed the brownies in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to cool. It made cutting them easy.
