Easy Chocolate-Carmel Brownies

Ingredients:

Cooking Spray
1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons skim milk
27 small soft caramel candies (about 8 ounces)
1/2 cup fat-free sweetened condensed skim milk
1 (18.25-ounce) package devil’s food cake mix with pudding (such as Pillsbury)
7 tablespoons reduced-calorie stick margarine, melted
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
1/2 cup reduced-fat semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°

Coat bottom of a 13X9 inch baking pan with cooking spray (do not coat sides of pan); dust with flour. Set aside.

Combine skim milk and candies in a bowl. Microwave at HIGH 1 1/2 minutes or until caramels melt and a mixture is smooth, stirring with a whisk after 1 minute. Set aside.

Combine sweetened condensed milk and next 3 ingredients in a large bowl; stir well (batter will be very stiff). Press two-thirds of batter into prepared pan with floured hands (layer will be thin).

Bake at 350° for 10 minutes. Remove from oven, and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Drizzle caramel mixture over chips, and carefully drop remaining batter by spoonfuls over caramel mixture. Bake an additional 30 minutes. Let cool completely in a pan on a wire rack.

Maj Duckworth is a pilot that served in same unit with Mystery's husband in Iraq. Her Blackhawnk was hit & she had severe injuries including double leg amputation. Mystery shared info with us at Dose.. this was at time when her hubby had returned stateside leaving his unit. He was unhappy about doing so but had an eye problem that the military was not going to let him stay with.

Mystery I am going by memory (and it is often very poor), perhaps you can share more and maybe give an update. Here are a few articles I found
