Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 box brownie mix
  • 1 package Rolo candies

Baking Requirements:

  • 3 eggs (from box instructions)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil (from box instructions)
  • 1/4 cup water (from box instructions)

Optional Toppings:

  • Caramel sauce (for drizzling)
  • Sea salt (for sprinkling)

Instructions

  1. Thoroughly coat a 9×13 inch baking pan with non-stick spray or butter to prevent sticking.
  2. Combine brownie mix ingredients as directed on the package, whisking until the batter achieves a smooth, glossy consistency.
  3. Carefully spread half of the prepared chocolate batter across the bottom of the greased pan, creating an even base layer.
  4. Arrange Rolo candies systematically across the initial batter layer, ensuring they are distributed evenly and not clustered in one area.
  5. Gently press each Rolo slightly into the batter, allowing them to sink minimally without fully submerging.
  6. Pour the remaining brownie batter over the Rolos, meticulously covering them completely to create a sealed chocolate layer.
  7. Place the pan in a preheated oven at the temperature recommended on the brownie mix box.
  8. Bake until the brownies develop a firm crust and a toothpick inserted near the center reveals just a few moist crumbs.
  9. Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool completely within the pan to allow the caramel centers to set properly.
  10. Optional: Enhance the dessert by drizzling caramel sauce and sprinkling a pinch of flaky sea salt across the top before serving.

Notes

  • Enhance baking success by using room temperature ingredients, ensuring smoother batter and more even brownie texture.
  • Prevent Rolos from sinking by lightly coating them in flour before placing into the batter, helping them stay suspended during baking.
  • Achieve gooey center perfection by slightly underbaking brownies, removing them when a few moist crumbs still cling to the toothpick.
  • Create dairy-free or vegan variations by substituting brownie mix with plant-based alternatives and using dairy-free chocolate caramel candies.
