    This recipe is great and all but can someone give me a tip on what to use to drizzle the caramel. It is very hot after its been microwaved and hard to handle. Also after I drizzled all 12 brownies I put the pecans on top but they didnt stick because the caramel dried up quickly. Anyone with tips or advice for this recipe.

    Yummy! I love brownies, and what a great way to dress them up with little effort! In response to sweetdiana, who had a question about difficulty in drizzling the brownies with the hot caramel sauce: instead of melting caramels, use caramel ice cream topping from a jar (Mrs. Richardson's Butterscotch Caramel Fudge is my personal favorite!). Just microwave the jar of caramel sauce for a few seconds, then take out a spoonful and drizzle over the top of the brownies. This way you can do a brownie or two at a time and then quickly sprinkle the nuts on top (if using) before the caramel sets up so they will stick. Voila!

    This is an absolutely delicious recipe. I don't think I've ever tasted brownies this good. The caramel and pecans put them over-the-top in taste. I cut them into smaller more bite-size pieces instead of the heart shape and I got so many more servings. You don't need so many caramels though. I had about 1/2 the caramel sauce left over. But, it was an excuse to make them again! Thanks for the great recipe.
