If you need a fast chocolate fix, I have the recipe for you.
This uses cake mix as a base for decadent brownies. If you don’t have caramels, chop up some candy bars. Use full-size Oreos or break up some other kind of cookies. Just let caramel and chocolate, in some form, get cozy.
After you combine everything, this bakes up in about 20 minutes. It smells like heaven, too. A heaven oozing with chocolate.
These bars end up chewy and mild. If you want deeper flavor, use dark chocolate.
This is a Bready or Not Original, too. I modified it from my Golden Oreo Cake Batter Blondies.
Bready or Not: Oreo and Caramel Cake Batter Brownies
Use cake mix as a base to create quick, chewy brownies! Customize with whatever chocolate or candy you have handy, but you can’t go wrong with caramel and Oreos. A Bready or Not Original.
- 1 box devil's food cake mix
- 1 teaspoon espresso powder, optional but awesome
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1 egg, room temperature
- 1/2 cup milk or half & half
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 bag Caramel Bits or chopped caramel, about 5 ounces
- 1 8-ounce bag Mini Oreos (or chopped Oreos), some reserved for top
Preheat oven to 350-degrees. Line a 9x13 pan with foil and apply nonstick spray or butter.
Combine first three ingredients in a large bowl. Add egg and milk. Fold in the chocolate chips, caramel pieces, and Mini Oreos.
Pour into prepared baking pan. Add the reserved Oreos on top. Bake for 20 minutes, or it until passes the toothpick test.
Allow to set for at least 30 minutes before cutting into squares.
OM NOM NOM!
