WHAT ARE Snickers?
Snickers is a chocolate bar made up of caramel, nougat, peanuts, and milk chocolate.
HOW TO MAKE Snickers BROWNIES
Preheat oven to 350F and line a 8×8 square baking pan with parchment paper. Lining the pan with parchment paper allows you to easily remove the brownies from the pan.
Brownie Batter
Chop the bakers chocolate and place in a microwave safe bowl. Melt in the microwave by stopping and stirring the chocolate in 20 second increments. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl combine melted butter and sugar and whisk by hand until smooth.
Add in the eggs and vanilla. Vigorously whisk until mixture is light and colour and has volume. This usually takes a good 5 minutes.
Pour in the melted chocolate and whisk until mixture is well combined.
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Using a rubber spatula mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined. Do not over mix.
Fold in the chopped snickers chocolate bars.
Pour batter into the lined pan and spread evenly. Bake for 28minutes or until edges are stiff and middle is set. Allow brownies to fully cool to room temperature in the pan before adding the toppings.
Caramel Sauce
In a medium sized microwave bowl add the caramel squares and heavy cream. Microwave in 20 second increments, stirring in between, until melted and combined.
Drizzle the caramel on top of the cooled brownies. Then top with the extra chopped snickers chocolate bars.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
STORING THE BROWNIES
These brownies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days.
SERVING THE BROWNIES
These brownies should be cut with a sharp knife. It's best to wipe the blade down after each slice. You can cut them into 9 large or 16 small brownies.
WHAT DOES SPOONED AND LEVELLED FLOUR MEAN?
Spooned and levelled flour refers to the way of measuring flour. To properly measure flour you should scoop spoonfuls of flour into your measuring cup and then level off the access by scraping with a knife. Scooping the measuring cup directly into your flour causes the flour to compress and you will get more flour than the recipe calls for.
DO I NEED TO USE ROOM TEMPERATURE EGGS?
Yes, you do. Room temperature eggs allows the eggs to break down easier in the batter, giving you chewy brownies.
Can I use a different caramel sauce?
Yes, you can. You can use a homemade or store bought caramel sauce instead.
