Cooking Directions

  • Spray 6” x 3” spring form pan with non-stick baking spray (with flour)
  • Pour the brownie mix into the pan and allow to settle
  • Smoke on the Traeger for 45 minutes at 180 Degrees
  • After desired smoke is reached turn Traeger to 325 degrees, leave brownies in the grill while it climbs to 325
  • After 25 Minutes of baking time – Add 10-12 squares of World’s Finest Chocolate with caramel and push into the brownie batter around the edges and in the center
  • Continue to bake the brownies for 25-35 minutes (after adding the chocolate) or until 90% cooked. You want the brownies to finish while resting, this helps the chocolate and caramel stay smooth and fluid.  It will harden some as they cool
  • Toothpick should pull out clean and not have any batter stuck to it (put toothpick in area without chocolate piece)
  • Remove from the Traeger with towel or gloves
  • Allow to cool for 10 minutes
  • Slice and Serve brownie slices and cut into them to enjoy the ooey gooey caramely goodness
  • Goes great with Coffee Ice Cream or Gelato

Cooking Notes

  • Can be made in a 9x13 pan as well, add the chocolate pieces randomly in the pan and push down. Decrease cooking time by 5-10 minutes, watching it carefully to avoid any burning.
