Caramel-Macchiato Brownies -- Southern Living image

From the 2009 August Edition. Caramel? Brownies? Nuf said! To make caramel bits -- quarter 12 caramels -- I spray my knife with cooking spray first! Use the espresso powder depending on how much you want these to have a coffee flavor! Cook time is time they are in the oven -- not the time you are required to attend to them! :)
