Caramel Brownies


There are several versions of this recipe. We got outstanding results tonight with this one.

14 oz caramel candy
2/3 c. evaporated milk, divided
1 German chocolate cake mix
3/4 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Melt caramels and 1/3 cup of the evaporated milk over very low heat, stirring occasionally until smooth.
Combine cake mix, melted butter, the remaining 1/3 cup evaporated milk, vanilla and nuts. Mix well and spread 1/2 of the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake at 350° F for 8 minutes.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the partially cooked brownies. Pour the melted caramel mixture over the top and with a teaspoon drop the remaining 1/2 of the batter evenly over the top.
Bake at 350° F for 20 minutes. Let brownies cool in pan then cut into bars.

O.K. these are probably one of my all time FAVORITES!!! They are super easy and a great snack for kids after school. I have never made them with the nuts and they are still good.
