Salted Caramel Chocolate Brownie
Makes 16 squares

¾ cup plain (all-purpose) flour
1⁄8 teaspoon baking powder
1¼ cups brown sugar
2 eggs
⅓ cup store-bought caramel filling or dulce de leche
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
150 grams (5 1/3 ounces) unsalted butter, melted
150 grams (5 1/3 ounces) dark chocolate, chopped
½ teaspoon sea salt flakes

Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F). Place the flour, baking powder, and sugar in a bowl and mix to combine. Add the eggs, caramel, vanilla, and butter and whisk until smooth. Stir though the chocolate and spoon the mixture into a 20cm (8-inch) square cake tin lined with non-stick baking paper. Sprinkle with the sea salt and bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until just firm around the edges.

Cut into squares and serve warm or cold.
