Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• cooking spray
• 1 (1 ounce) square dark chocolate, chopped
• 2 tablespoons caramel dessert topping, or to taste
• 0.25 cup butter
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup white sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 0.5 cup dulce de leche

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat an 8-inch square baking pan with cooking spray.

Step 2

Place butter in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir until melted. Add chocolate square; stir until melted and combined. Remove from heat.

Step 3

Stir white sugar, brown sugar, flour, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt into melted chocolate mixture. Stir in eggs with a spoon or spatula until just combined; try not to use more than 30 or 40 strokes.

Step 4

Pour a little more than half the batter into the prepared pan. Drop small spoonfuls of dulce de leche evenly over top. Gently drag a knife through dulce de leche to create swirls. Cover with remaining batter; drizzle caramel on top in a swirling pattern.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until edges start pulling away from the sides of the pan, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into squares.
