Ooey, gooey caramel brownies!

Well, I realize this is a cookie blog, but every so often I get the hankerin' for a yummy brownie! I just happened to be looking through my family recipe cook book and came across this little gem, that I actually have never even baked before. What, you say?! I know! But, I thought today was as good a day as any. I also had everything I needed for this recipe, so it worked out nicely, cause Mama was not in the mood to visit the store with children in tow today! Especially ornery, runny nosed children! So, we stayed at home and baked today! First I tried a homemade gluten free granola bar for Jackson, more about that later. Then I decided to bake these luscious little beauts and finally I finished up with some gluten free biscuits.

Caramel Brownies
1 German chocolate cake mix
½ c melted butter
½ c. canned milk
½ c. nuts

Mix the above ingredients. Pour half into a heavily greased pan. Pat down, Bake at 350 degrees for 6 minutes.
In a double boiler melt 50 caramels with 1/3 c. canned milk. (or just use the left over caramel dip that you used for apples last month, like me) Stir well. Remove Baked cake mix from oven and cover with 1 ½ c. chocolate chips. Pour melted caramel over Chocolate chips. Spread remainder of mix on top. Bake 15-18 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove from oven and let cool for at least 2 hours before cutting.

These were delicious and so easy especially since I didn't have to unwrap 50 caramels. Yeah! I would show you a picture of the finished product but I completely forgot to take a picture before I sent them out the door to my sisters! I had a few for myself, but since I have been hitting the gym at the early hour of 6 o'clock I don't want my work to go for nothing, so I had a few and sent the rest to someone else! I just love to bake, get on my good side and you will reap the rewards! Enjoy these delicious brownies! Yum! Yum!
