Topped with a velvety chocolate layer, these treats will shine at any gathering, family dinner, or whenever you're craving something truly indulgent.

INGREDIENTS

• Box of German chocolate cake mix: 15.25 oz
• Divided evaporated milk: 12 oz
• Melted salted butter: ½ cup
• Unwrapped caramels: 11 oz
• Diced Snickers minis: 2 cups
• Semisweet chocolate chips: 1 cup
• Pecans (chopped): ¾ cup
• Milk chocolate chips: 2¼ cups

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1:

Warm your oven to 350°F and coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with grease.

Step 2:

Combine the German chocolate cake mix with ½ cup evaporated milk and the melted butter in a bowl until fully mixed. Press ⅔ of this mixture into your greased pan and bake for 6 minutes.

Step 3:

Mix the caramels with ⅓ cup evaporated milk in a pot over low flame, keep stirring until you get a smooth blend.

Step 4:

Cover the partly baked brownie layer with diced Snickers, semisweet chocolate chips, and chopped pecans. Pour the runny caramel mix over everything.

Step 5:

Take the leftover brownie mix and drop it by spoonfuls on top of your caramel layer, spreading carefully. Bake again for 15-17 minutes. Let them cool all the way down.

Step 6:

Mix the milk chocolate chips with what's left of your evaporated milk and melt until smooth. Spread this chocolate mix over your cooled brownies. Wait for it to firm up before cutting squares.

Serving and Storage Tips

• Keep your brownies fresh in a sealed container at room temp for 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
• Want neat slices? Cool the brownies in the fridge first.

Helpful Notes

• If you love that nutty crunch, throw some extra pecans on before adding the final chocolate layer.
• Try dark chocolate chips for the topping if you don't want it too sweet.

Tips from Well-Known Chefs

• According to Chef Grace, a tiny bit of sea salt in the caramel creates amazing flavor balance.
