Instructions
00:00 Introduction
Make the brownies
00:18 Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and lightly grease a 9x9” (23x23cm) square baking pan, or line with parchment paper. Set aside.
00:23 In a large mixing bowl, whisk together sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
01:15 Add melted butter, eggs, and vanilla and stir together very well until mixture is completely combined.
01:52 Stir in chocolate chips.
02:10 Spread evenly into prepared baking pan and bake in preheated 350F (175C) oven for 23-25 minutes. When finished baking a toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean or mostly clean with just a few moist crumbs.
03:08 Allow brownies to cool for 20 minutes (they do not have to be fully cooled) before adding toppings.
To make the caramel
03:20 Combine sugar, water, corn syrup, and salt in a small saucepan and stir frequently over medium-low heat until sugar is dissolved. If you notice any sugar adhering to the sides of the pan, lightly dip a pastry brush in water and use it to sweep away the sugar.
04:25 Turn heat to just a notch below medium and continue to cook without stirring until mixture turns caramel in color and reaches a temperature of 340-345F (171-173C).
05:34 Remove from heat and very carefully and slowly drizzle in cream. Mixture will bubble aggressively, so use caution.
05:50 Add butter, 1 piece at a time, until mixture is smooth.
05:59 Stir in vanilla extract and allow caramel to cool completely before using (you can speed this up by placing it into it in the refrigerator).
06:05 Spread caramel sauce evenly over the top of the cooled brownies, covering the entire surface. Sprinkle chopped pecans over top of caramel.
06:55 In a small microwave safe bowl, microwave chocolate chips and heavy cream on high for 25 seconds. Whisk together until smooth. Drizzle over top of brownies.
07:56 Sprinkle with sea salt, cut and enjoy!
Notes
This recipe makes 1 batch or 1 cup of my thick caramel sauce: sugarspunrun.com/how-to-make-... I’ve tried this recipe with store-bought sauce and found it to be too thin and so I recommend using the sauce linked here. The sauce may be prepared up to a week in advance and stored (covered) in the fridge.
Storing
Store the brownies in the pan you’ve baked them in to prevent too much caramel spilling off of them. I store at room temperature (tightly covered) for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator (tightly covered) for up to 5 days. If kept at room temperature, the caramel will slowly spill over the edges of the brownies, this is fine and normal.

Yes! WE want caramel EVERYWHERE!!! Omg... 😍
My goodness- they look scrumptious!
Thank you! :)
I love your cheesecake brownie with Dulce de lèche. It’s my go to, so I know these brownies are going to be delicious. Thanks 😊🎉
I hope these are just as much of a hit! :)
This would be excellent with ice cream!
Definitely! :)
@@SugarSpunRun Made the caramel the other day but never made the brownies. By this time the caramel is almost gone, one spoonful at a time. What a wonderful flavor, and the texture is perfect! Thanks so much. Definitely going to put this caramel sauce recipe on repeat. Love being able to add caramel to bar cookies too.
I’ve never added corn syrup to my caramel before I’ll be giving that a try. Hope the test went well. You’re looking adorable.
Thanks for sharing your recipe . For fudge turtle brownies . look so pretty and delicious . Have a wonderful day .❤
Those look amazing. I usually warm my cream to about 100 degrees F before adding to my caramel to avoid shocking the melted sugar.
I'm a qualified baker and pastry chef and never bother to heat up the cream 🤷♀️ if you're whisking the whole time it doesn't really matter
I made these brownies and they’re so good! They’re really decadent and rich in flavor. Best brownies I ever had (especially since the turtle is my fav)
I’m so glad you enjoyed them so much! 😊😊
These look really nice brownies 😋
I always use small bulldog clips to make sure parchment paper adheres to the sides of a square pan when I make thick batters like this :)
I want to make everything on your PAGE!! 💓💓
I hope you love it all! :)
Looks so delicious! 😋 I've never made homemade caramel sauce, definitely going to try your recipe. I also want to try to make English toffee one day. Just curious, do you pick your videos recipes on cravings? 😁 Prayers on your test in the morning. Love and respect fron Kentucky. 💖🙏🏻✝️🇺🇸
I actually have a schedule for my videos. If I did it on my cravings we'd be all over the board! 🤣
Love ur videos❤ happy Mother’s Day to u too ur amazing and ur the best person in the world thank you for always sharing ur videos😊

Please could you make a school cake please ❤
Buying the caramel part. 😏. The last time I made caramel I lost a crown. Looks 😋
Oh no! That sounds like quite an forgettable experience! I hope you love these! :)
woooooooooooooow I like it🙂💯❤👋👋👍
Thank you! :)
Can’t wait to make?
I hope you love them! :)
Lord, you look like you caring a little girl
These look delicious!! Question: Do you toast your pecans before adding them?
You can if you'd like, but it's not necessary. :)
Could I use honey or maple syrup instead of corn syrup?
😋 mmm looks sooo yummy
Haha yeah you might not want to eat too many of those
With your glucose test tomorrow
Hopefully all goes well 🙏 have to ask you going to find out what gender the baby is 😊💕?
Thank you, Sam for sharing all your wonderful recipes with all of us
Oh btw …. How long does the caramel sauce stay good for in the refrigerator?
(I made some for your pecan cookies and still have some left.)
How did your glucose test go?
All is well. Thank you for asking! 😊
Have a cup of raw soinaxh or 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon it lowers glucose
How are they as just the brownies without the caramel sauce or pecans?
They would certainly work as regular brownies. I do have an easy brownie from scratch that I prefer by themselves. :) ua-cam.com/video/pOu2O9O78xE/v-deo.htmlsi=ZDq_JUhlWDdledFr
With your knowledge of baking you probably will know the answer to this question. Can you substitute two egg whites in place of one whole egg in baking?
Unfortunately I wouldn’t generally recommend it. The whites and yolks play different roles in recipes so you need both parts when a whole egg is called for.
Caramel AND Chocolate?! Definitely piqued my interest haha
I've seen these in cookbooks, but first time seeing a step-by-step tutorial video format. This really helped me conceptualize it for myself and give it a go when I see milk chocolate chips on sale (I just never get them..I typically get dark/semi/white chocolate and even butterscotch...but never milk).
And also have light corn syrup that I never got around to using, so maybe this is what it was meant for - FUDGY TURTLE BROWNIES ;)
Thanks again for sharing your videos w all the tips n techniques necessary to pull it off!
Thank you so much! I hope you love these! They are so good! :)
