Steps:

• This recipe has appeared in Joy since the original edition. Have all ingredients at room temperature. Position a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 350* F. Line a 13 x 9- inch baking pan (I always use Pyrex) with greased aluminum foil, allowing it to overhang the 2 narrow ends of the pan by 2 inches.
• In a large, heavy saucepan over very low heat, melt butter with chocolate, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth.
• Remove from heat and set butter and chocolate aside until completely cool.
• Once cool, stir in sugar and vanilla.
• Stir in eggs until well-combined.
• Add flour and walnuts and stir until just combined (be careful not to overmix!).
• Scrape the batter into the pan and spread to the edges.
• Once level, drizzle caramel ice cream topping over brownies in a swirly pattern or zig-zag. Be careful not to get too much syrup in one spot, or it'll make a delicious, gooey hole in the finished brownies. The syrup will make a slight indentation into the brownies as they bake.
• Bake until the center of the pan is almost firm when lightly pressed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean but still moist at the bottom, 23-28 minutes.
• Remove the pan to a cooling rack and let stand several hours until completely cool.
• Using the overhanging foil as handles, lift the brownies to a cutting board, peel off the foil, and slice into pieces.
• **Helpful hint: Using a plastic knife will keep the brownies from sticking to the knife!***.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bring a pot of water to a boil and place a metal bowl or double boiler over it; make sure the bowl is not touching the water. Add the butter and chocolate squares to the bowl and stir until melted. Pour the melted chocolate into a large glass bowl. Add the sugar, flour, nuts, vanilla and eggs, and mix well.
• Line a 13- by 9- by 2-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Rub the parchment paper with butter to prevent sticking. Then pour the brownie batter into the dish. Bake until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Remove the brownies from the oven.
• Use the parchment paper to lift the brownies from the baking dish. Cut into bars. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream and drizzle with Caramel Sauce. Garnish with additional toppings as desired.
• In a large saucepan, combine the sugar and 1 1/2 cups water. Cook and stir over high heat until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture comes to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is a golden color.
• Remove from the heat. Carefully whisk in the cream, half at a time. Stir in the butter and vanilla. Return to medium heat to melt any sugar lumps. Let cool.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Line 13x9-inch pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides. Spray with cooking spray. Microwave unsweetened chocolate and butter in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 min. or until butter is melted; stir until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended. Stir in sugar. Add eggs; mix well. Blend in flour.
• Pour half the batter into prepared pan. Bake 25 min. Meanwhile, microwave caramels and whipping cream in microwaveable bowl 2 min. or until caramels are completely melted and mixture is well blended when stirred.
• Pour caramel sauce over brownie. Sprinkle with half each of the nuts and candy-coated chocolate pieces; top with spoonfuls of remaining brownie batter. Sprinkle with remaining nuts and candy-coated chocolate pieces.
• Bake 25 min. or just until top is firm to the touch. (Do not overbake.) Cool completely. Use foil handles to lift brownie from pan before cutting to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 9 x 12 x 1 1/2-inch baking pan.
• Melt the butter, 8 ounces of the chocolate chips, and the unsweetened chocolate together in a medium bowl set over simmering water. Allow to cool for 15 minutes. In a large bowl, stir (do not beat) together the eggs, coffee, vanilla, and sugar. Stir the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and allow to cool to room temperature (see note below).
• In a medium bowl, sift together 1/2 cup of the flour, the baking powder, and salt and add to the chocolate mixture. Toss the remaining 6 ounces of chocolate chips and the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour in a medium bowl and add them to the chocolate mixture. Spread evenly in the prepared pan.
• Bake for 35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Don't overbake!
• As soon as the brownies are out of the oven, place the jar of caramel sauce without the lid in a microwave and heat just until it's pourable. Stir until smooth. Drizzle the caramel evenly over the hot brownies and sprinkle with the sea salt. Cool completely and cut into 12 bars.
