2 cups sugar.

4 large eggs.

1 teaspoon vanilla extract.

1 cup cocoa powder.

½ teaspoon salt.

1 cup chocolate chunks.
09 -
1 cup caramel sauce.

Sea salt flakes (optional).
Instructions:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.

In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, stirring well to combine.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.

If desired, sprinkle sea salt flakes over the top of the brownies right after removing them from the oven for a sweet and salty contrast.
08 -
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares and serving.
