Ultimate Mars Brownie: Combining Chocolate and Caramel

Views: 0

Dive into a world of chocolate and caramel with our amazing Mars Bar Brownies. These treats are perfect for anyone who loves chocolate. They’re filled with a rich chocolate brownie mix, swirled with caramel, and have Mars bars inside.

What makes our brownies special is the real Mars bars inside. These chocolate bars are known for their nougat and caramel. They bring a special texture and flavor to the brownies.

Our recipe is all about the perfect mix of sweet and rich. We combine melted dark chocolate with butter, sugar, eggs, and more. This mix makes a brownie that’s both decadent and satisfying.

For the best texture, freeze and chop the Mars bars before adding to the mix. This way, the bars mix into the brownie evenly. You get caramel in every gooey bite.

Use a 9×12″ traybake tin to make these brownies. This size works well for the perfect bake. Bake them for 15 minutes. Then, add more chopped Mars bars and bake for another 5-10 minutes.

Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This makes them firm and fudgy. You can keep them in a container for 3 days. Or freeze them for up to 3 months.

Try our Mars Bar Brownies for a real chocolate and caramel treat. You’ll love every bite. They’re the perfect way to enjoy these amazing flavors.

Tips and Variations for Mars Bar Brownies

When you make Mars Bar Brownies, start by using room temperature eggs. This step is key for a good texture. The butter can be cold because you’ll melt it. Use light brown soft sugar for fudgy brownies, but caster sugar works too. For accurate results, weigh your ingredients.

Adjust baking times for different tin sizes. A 9×12″ tin needs 20 minutes, a 9″ square requires 30 minutes, and an 8″ square takes 40 minutes.

Choose dark chocolate with 70% cocoa or more for the best taste. Your liking for the chocolate affects the brownies’ flavor. Avoid cheap chocolates for rich taste.

Keep the brownies airtight for up to 3 days or freeze them for 3 months.

To go gluten-free, swap plain flour for a gluten-free blend. Note that Mars bars contain gluten, but you can use Snickers.

For dairy-free options, use plant-based butter and check dark chocolate and caramel for milk ingredients. Look for dairy-free caramel nougat bars.

Recommended Equipment:

  • Digital kitchen scales
  • Measuring spoons
  • 9×12″ traybake tin (or suitable alternative size)

Baking Tin Size Baking Time
9×12″ traybake tin 20 minutes
9″ square tin 30 minutes
8″ square tin 40 minutes

Conclusion

Mars Bar Brownies are the best treat, mixing the deep flavors of chocolate and caramel. They’re fudgy and filled with chopped Mars bars. Plus, a caramel swirl makes them extra special for dessert fans.

Enjoy them warm with some vanilla ice cream or use as a sundae topping. These treats will make anyone happy. You can even make them gluten-free or dairy-free to fit your needs.

Store these brownies in an airtight container or the freezer for later. Now, go and enjoy the amazing taste of Mars Bar Brownies.

FAQ

Can I use a different type of chocolate for the brownies?

The best choice for brownies is dark chocolate. Aim for 70% cocoa or more.

Choose a dark chocolate you like. This affects the taste a lot. Steer clear of cheap baking chocolates. They might taste fake.

Can I make gluten-free brownies?

Making gluten-free brownies is easy. Just swap out regular flour with a mix that’s gluten-free.

But remember, Mars bars have gluten. If you want a gluten-free bar, Snickers is a good pick.

Can I make dairy-free brownies?

You absolutely can make brownies without dairy. Use a dairy-free butter and check the chocolate and caramel.

Again, Mars bars have dairy. For a dairy-free caramel nougat bar, look at ingredient lists. Make sure it’s okay for any allergies you have.

How should I store the brownies?

Keep brownies in an airtight container or cover them on a plate. Put them in a cool spot.

They’re good this way for 3 days. To store them longer, freeze for up to 3 months. Remember to thaw before eating.

Can I customize the size of the brownies?

You can cook your brownies in different pans for various sizes. A 9×12″ tray needs 20 minutes.

A 9″ tin requires 30 minutes. An 8″ tin should be in the oven for 40 minutes.

Can I use a different caramel sauce?

You’re free to pick any good store-bought caramel sauce you like.

Choose one that tantalizes your taste buds.

What should I do if my brownies are too gooey?

Overly gooey brownies can be fixed by baking them a bit longer. Watch them closely.

Use a toothpick to test if they’re ready. You want a few moist crumbs, but not a dry outcome.

Can I make the brownies without freezing the Mars bars?

Freezing Mars bars before using them in brownies is smart. It keeps them from melting too soon.

If you don’t, they might not keep their shape well. For the best caramel and nougat, freeze them first.
