A delightful dessert combining fudgy brownies with fresh apples and a salted caramel drizzle.
Ingredients
- Brownie mix: 1 box (typically 18.5 oz)

- Brown sugar: 1/2 cup, packed
- Eggs: 2 large
- Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
- Sea salt: 1/2 teaspoon (plus more for sprinkling)
- Caramel sauce: 1/2 cup (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low heat and let it cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter with brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
- Gently fold the brownie mix into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed.
- Pour the brownie batter into a prepared 9×13 inch baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
- Drizzle caramel sauce over the warm brownies and swirl gently with a knife.
- Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the top and let cool for 15-20 minutes before cutting into squares.
Notes
