caramel brownies with sea salt.

I am equally happy and ashamed to tell you that my love for brownies is here to stay.

I'm starting to wonder if a bad brownie is possible... because so far, the (many) recipes I've tried have been amazing. This time, I made caramel sea salt brownies. Basically all I did was take my favorite brownie recipe, layer a homemade caramel sauce in between two layers of brownie batter, and sprinkle sea salt on top. I made the caramel sauce thin (again substituted half and half for whipping cream) which made the brownies extra moist but surprisingly not too sweet.

I heart brownies.

*If you still need convincing, Tyler (a harsh, unbiased critic) said they are the best brownies I've ever made!

I heart brownies, too! It's been a couple weeks since I made a batch- I think I'm going to have to rectify that situation asap.

Brownies are just one of life's little pleasures! These look divine. I use a recipe from my mother in law, which includes marshmellows. They are so chocolatey and gooey! Yum :)

I've never thought of making brownies with sea salt. That's a great idea! It's probably a perfect combo of sweet and savory.

You're killing me!
Even if I wanted to make some, I don't have a pan to cook them in (all part of living overseas 8 months out of the year and having to have your whole life fit into 2 suitcases).
I will have to add these to my "to do while in the states" list :)
