Equipment
- Baking Pan
- Parchment paper
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
- Rubber spatula
- Microwave or Double Boiler
- Measuring cups
- Measuring spoons
Ingredients
- 1/2 pound unsalted butter
- 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 11 ounces thick caramel sauce
- 1 teaspoon flaked sea salt
Instructions
- Set your oven to 350 degrees. Line your pan with parchment paper. Leave some paper hanging over the edges.
- Melt butter and chocolate in a bowl. Use a microwave in short 30-second bursts. Stir until the mixture is very smooth.
- Whisk eggs and sugar in a bowl. Add the vanilla and coffee granules now. Mix until the color turns pale yellow.
- Pour the cooled chocolate into the eggs. Stir slowly so you do not cook eggs. Ensure the mixture is fully combined.
- Sift the flour and baking powder together. Fold this into the wet chocolate batter. Stop mixing when the flour disappears.
- Pour half the batter into the pan. Smooth it out with your rubber spatula. Bake for about 20 minutes.
- Take the pan out of the oven. Spread caramel sauce over the warm brownie. Sprinkle a little salt over the caramel.
- Drop spoonfuls of batter over the caramel. Spread it gently to cover the sauce. Bake for another 20 minutes.
- Let the brownies cool in the pan. This is very important for the caramel. It needs time to firm up fully.
Notes
➔ Use room temperature eggs for a smoother batter.
➔ Do not overbake or the brownies will be dry.
➔ Sift your flour to avoid any small white lumps.
➔ Use sea salt flakes for a better crunch on top.
➔ Chill the brownies before cutting for clean edges.
➔ Grease the parchment paper for a non-stick finish.
➔ Use high-quality chocolate for a more luxurious taste.
➔ Let the melted chocolate cool before adding to eggs.
