Recipe Introduction

"I thought that I had lost this recipe forever but, recently found it in a book loaned to me by a co-worker. There was a girl in my dorm in college whose grandmother used to bake these occasionally and boy were they good. I've made them also. I warn you -- these brownies a very, very rich. They're great on cold winter days -- or any day!"

List of Ingredients

1 box German chocolate cake mix
2/3 cup evaporated milk, divided
1 6-ounce package semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1 bag caramels
3/4 cup melted butter



Recipe

Combine dry cake mix with 1/3 cup evaporated milk. Press half of mixture into greased 9x13-inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes. Unwrap caramels and melt with remaining 1/3 evaporated milk. Sprinkle chocolate
chips over partially-baked brownie base. (You don't have to let this partially-baked brownie base cool befor adding chocolate chips.) Sprinkle on walnuts. Pour caramel mixture over top. Pat reserved cake mixture into flat pieces with your hands. Lay randomly on top of caramel. Bake at 350 degrees 20-25 minutes. Let cool, cut and enjoy!
