½ cup dark chocolate, chopped
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla essence
½ cup flour
½ cup cocoa powder

3 Tbsp salted butter

METHOD
For the brownies: Preheat oven to 180°, grease and line a tin with baking paper and set aside. Place butter and chocolate into a microwave safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds. Remove and stir, place back into the microwave for another 15 seconds until melted together.
Allow it to cool for a few minutes then whisk in eggs and vanilla essence. Fold dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until well-combined, then transfer mixture into the prepared baking tin and bake for 30-35 minutes. Once the brownies are baked remove from the oven and allow to cool for 1 hour.
Meanwhile prepare the salted caramel. Place sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves. Allow the sugar to come to a boil, and let it boil until the sugar develops a golden amber colour. Pour the cream into the caramel and mix using a wooden spoon. Once the cream is combined add in butter and stir until melted through, lastly stir in salt flakes.
Slice brownies into squares and drizzle a generous amount of salted caramel and enjoy!
