- ¾ cup butter
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 ½ cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
For the Turtle Layer

Instructions
To Make The Brownie Layer
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
- Grease a 9x13 pan. Melt butter, allow to cool five minutes. In a large bowl, combine melted butter and cocoa powder. Beat in sugar and eggs.
- In a separate large bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Stir together. Add mixture to wet ingredients, stir well to combine.
- Pour into baking pan and spread evenly. Bake 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes back clean. Set aside and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
Caramel Turtle Topping
- While the brownies are baking, you can start the caramel sauce. In a medium sized saucepan, combine evaporated milk, caramels, salt and butter. Stir constantly over medium low heat, until ingredients are smooth and blended together.
- When brownies are done cooking and have rested 10 minutes, pour the caramel sauce over the brownies. Sprinkle chocolate chips and chopped nuts over the caramel.
- Return to oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until chocolate chips have begun to melt.
- Remove and allow to cool completely before slicing.
