Indulge in the luscious layers of Tiramisu Caramel Brownies—a dreamy blend of rich brownies, coffee, and creamy mascarpone! ☕🍫✨
Ingredients:
– 1 box (18.25 oz) brownie mix
– 2 eggs
– 1/2 cup vegetable oil
– 1/4 cup water
– 1/2 cup brewed espresso, cooled
– 1/4 cup coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlua)
– 1 cup mascarpone cheese
– 1/2 cup powdered sugar
– 1/4 cup caramel sauce
– Cocoa powder, for dusting
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9×9-inch baking pan by greasing and flouring it. This will ensure your brownies come out easily!
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the brownie mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water until you have a smooth batter. No lumps allowed!
3. Pour half of the brownie batter into your prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
4. In another bowl, combine the cooled brewed espresso and coffee liqueur, stirring well.
5. Gently pour half of this espresso mixture over the brownie batter, ensuring it’s evenly spread out.
6. In a separate bowl, blend the mascarpone cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
7. Carefully spread this mascarpone mixture over the espresso layer in the pan, taking your time for an even layer.
8. Drizzle caramel sauce over the mascarpone layer—more caramel makes everything better!
9. Now, take the remaining brownie batter and pour it on top, followed by drizzling the rest of the espresso mixture over it.
10. With a knife or toothpick, gently swirl the layers together to create a beautiful marbled effect. This is where the magic happens!
11. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center; it should come out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs attached.
12. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing.
13. Before you dig in, dust the top with cocoa powder for that classic tiramisu finish. Enjoy every decadent bite
