Caramel Brownie Sundae

If there is one thing my kids could eat 24 hours a day – it’s ice cream. If there is one thing I could eat 24 hours a day – it’s brownies and caramel ;). So we decided to compromise and make Caramel Brownie Sundae. They turned out so good! We also added in Mint Oreos just for good measure – because you really can never have enough yummy goodness right?

These are fairly easy to put together, so they are perfect for family, friends, parties, etc. We made the brownies according to the box and added caramel to the center of each one before we started baking. This was my first time trying it – and next time I will cook them for like 5 minutes first and then add the caramel just so that they don’t sink to the bottom.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 25 minutes

Yield: 24

Serving Size: 1 brownie

Ingredients

Brownie Mix (make according to directions)
Package of caramels
Ice Cream
Caramel Syrup (and chocolate if desired)
Mint Oreo Cookies

Instructions

Mix brownies according to the directions on the box
Spoon mixture into cupcake pan (make sure it is well-greased)
Cook for about 4-5 minutes
Remove pan from oven and add one unwrapped caramel into the center of each brownie
Continue backing until done (about 10-15 more minutes).
Remove from oven and carefully remove brownies from the tray and set on a cooling rack (or straight into sundae bowls).
Add brownie, scoop(s) of ice cream, drizzle with caramel (and chocolate) syrup and then sprinkle with cookie crumbs.

(I used a mini food processor to chop the cookies)

Notes – I only used about 1/2 of the batter for 12 brownies “cupcakes”. I reserved the rest for a Brownie Cheesecake, but you could do two batches of 12.
