I promised to share tips and ideas for your Valentine's Day desserts.
This is one of them.
This dessert is ahh-mazing! You get your favorite brownie, frosted and drizzled with caramel sauce. Read that again. 🙂

Tip:
Start with your favorite brownie recipe. We all have one, right? You want to make this dessert perfect!
I used a heart shaped baking pan for whoopie pies. If you do so, adjust the baking time, to 10 - 13 minutes. You do not want to over bake your brownies.
After they cool, frost them and drizzle the caramel sauce over the top.
I used this frosting recipe.
I also have a caramel sauce recipe here, on the blog, but I may have just found my new favorite one! My Hubby had 3 teaspoons when taste-testing and declared it "sooooo good". 🙂
Caramel sauce that is man-approved? Score!!
Caramel Sauce:
1 c granulated sugar
6 tablespoon unsalted butter, room temperature
⅔ c heavy cream, room temperature
Place the sugar in a medium saucepan. Place on medium heat and whisk. Eventually, it will start to melt and clump up. Just keep whisking. It will melt and turn caramel color.
When all the sugar is melted, remove from heat and add all the butter. Keep whisking until smooth.
Add the cream, pouring slowly. Whisk until all combined and smooth. Pour into a jar and let sit for 10 - 15 minutes on a counter. Place in the refrigerator while you make the brownies and frosting. It should keep well for 2 weeks in the fridge, but I won't swear by it because mine disappeared the next day. 😀
It will turn cloudy while it cools.
Enjoy!
