Caramel Brownies

Caramel Brownies

We had friends coming over to celebrate their son Nick’s birthday, who had just turned 7! For dinner, the birthday boy wanted a smorgasbord, which is a bunch of different finger foods that he could eat at his leisure, and for dessert, he wanted caramel brownies. I found a great-looking recipe for these brownies on Taste of Home that looked perfect. The brownies weren’t difficult to make, smelled heavenly while they baked, and tasted even better. The best part? The birthday boy loved them.

Side Note: I am so sorry for the recent issues with my recipe index, commenting section, etc. Please bear with me for a little while longer. My site is currently being re-designed to fix outdated software. We had to shut down a few areas of the website to prevent hackers from infiltrating and damaging the site. I hope to have the new and improved site up and working soon. Thanks for your patience!!!
