Ingredients

Dulce de Leche

  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)
  • 1 teaspoon table salt

Brownies

Topping

  • 6 oz dark baking chocolate, chopped
  • Coarse sea salt

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 425°F. Pour sweetened condensed milk into 9-inch glass pie plate; cover with foil. Place pie plate in larger shallow pan with sides; carefully place pan with pie plate in oven. Fill larger pan with hot water so it almost comes to the top of the pan. Bake for 1 1/2 hours or until thick and caramel colored. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Stir in table salt; set aside.
  • 2
    Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Grease 9-inch square pan with shortening or cooking spray; line pan with cooking parchment paper.
  • 3
    Make brownie mix as directed on box, using water, oil and eggs. Spread half of the brownie batter in pan. Top with one-third of the salted dulce de leche. With butter knife, swirl dulce de leche into batter. Carefully spread remaining brownie batter on top. Top with remaining two-thirds salted dulce del leche; swirl into batter.
  • 4
    Bake 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out almost clean (with a few moist crumbs). Cool completely.
  • 5
    In small microwavable bowl, microwave dark chocolate uncovered on High 1 to 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth.
  • 6
    Cut brownies into 3 rows by 3 rows. Top with melted dark chocolate and generous sprinkle of sea salt. Refrigerate until chocolate is set, about 15 minutes.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    To save time, you can substitute 1 can (13.4 oz) dulce de leche (caramelized sweetened condensed milk) and skip step 1.
  • tip 2
    Store brownies in the refrigerator up to 3 days. They taste even better the longer they sit!
  • tip 3
    Dulce de leche is nice to have on hand for making these brownies. Also try it drizzled on dessert pizza or ice cream, or use it to make frosting.
