- Step 7: Bake for 25–30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter.
- Step 8: Cool brownies for about 10 minutes to set before drizzling caramel sauce and sprinkling chopped peanuts on top.
- Step 9: Optional: Sprinkle chocolate chips on top for extra melty chocolate goodness.
- Step 10: Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
Notes
Allow brownies to cool slightly before drizzling caramel to prevent it from pooling. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week. Brownies freeze well for up to 3 months.
