  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 4 full-sized Snickers bars, roughly chopped, divided
  • ¼ cup caramel sauce (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

Notes

  • For crinkly topped brownies, whisk the sugar and eggs into the chocolate until the sugar begins to dissolve.
  • The butter and sugar can be melted using the stovetop in place of using the microwave. Place the butter and sugar in a large heat safe mixing bowl. Place the mixing bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, ensuring the water does not come into contact with the base of the bowl. Stir until the butter and chocolate have melted.
  • Set the chocolate mixture aside to cool slightly for 5 minutes before continuing with the recipe.
  • The brownie batter is just combined when no streaks of white flour remain.
    Increase the baking time slightly for firmer brownies, and reduce the baking time slightly for fudgier brownies.
