Turtle-Brownies

Ingredients:

1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups butter melted
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (12 ounce)package of semi-sweet chocolate chunks (divided)
2 cups coarsely chopped pecans or walnuts (divided)
1 small bottle of Hershey's Caramel ice cream topping.( I like the squirt bottle.) (We won't use it all!)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Line a 13 x 9 inch pan baking pan with aluminum foil (heavy duty)and grease or spray with non-stick cooking spray.

Combine melted butter and cocoa powder into a medium bowl and mix well. Set this aside.

Next, in a large mixing bowl, beat your eggs and sugar at medium speed. Do this until they get fluffy. This will take about 5 minutes.

Add your butter and cocoa mixture to your eggs and sugar.

Add your flour, salt and vanilla. Mix just until combined.

Now, Spread only half of your brownie batter into your prepared pan.

Drizzle a layer of your caramel sauce over top of your brownie batter.

Sprinkle half of your chopped nuts and chocolate chunks over the caramel sauce.

Now drizzle a little bit more caramel sauce over top of your nuts and chocolate chunks.

Spread your remaining chocolate batter evenly over top of the mints. (Please do this carefully!)

Repeat the layering steps for the caramel, nuts and chocolate chips.

Bake in your oven for about 35 minutes.

Let completely cool in your pan before serving.

Enjoy!
