Laurel’s Caramel Brownies

I always think of caramel brownies when fall arrives and football season is in full swing. Perfect for parties, tailgating, a cure for ailments, and well, there is just always a good reason to make these beauties! These are best served with an icy, cold glass of milk.

1 (12 oz) bag of caramels
2/3 cup evaporated milk, divided
1 box German chocolate cake mix with pudding
1/2 cup melted butter
6 oz. semisweet chocolate chips
chopped walnuts (optional)

Melt the caramels with 1/3 cup of the evaporated milk in a small saucepan.

Combine the rest of the milk, cake mix, and melted butter in a medium bowl. This can be done with a wooden spoon.

Press half of the cake mixture into a 9 by 13 greased pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 6 minutes.

Sprinkle the walnuts, if using, and the chocolate chips on top. Then pour the melted caramels over it. Looks like this:

These look ready to eat in my book! But the next step is to add the remaining cake mixture as the top layer. Press the remaining cake mix out into pieces and lay on top of the caramel.

Bake for 20 minutes more.
