This looks divine. Do you also have a recipe for home made caramel? Lauren
Hi Lauren! Thank you so much! I normally use a recipe from Ed Kimber (the boy who bakes). If you search him on youtube there is a great video for salted caramel!
I love that you added pretzels, nothing is better than that sweet and salty combination to me!
I love the contrast of texture too! I completely agree sweet and salty is the BEST combination!
I adore salty and sweet together. These gorgeous brownies right up my street. 🙂
Thank you very much! 🙂
