Recipe:

1 1/2 cups, golden cane sugar or granulated sugar
1/2 cup, melted butter
1/2 teaspoon, salt
1 teaspoon, vanilla
1/2 cup, cocoa powder
3 eggs
1/2 cup, bakers complete blend, cocoa
1/2 cup, bakers complete blend
1 teaspoon, baking powder
1 bar, vegan baking chocolate, chopped

Salted Caramel
1 cup, golden cane sugar
1/4 cup, water
4 tbsp, vegan butter
1/4 cup, oat milk based cream
1 tsp, tapioca starch

Instructions:

To a large bowl, add your sugar and melted butter, mix until combined and sugar is coated with butter.
To the sugar mixture, add your 3 eggs, whisking to combine. Mix in your vanilla.
Add cocoa powder, whisk again until fully combined.
Once combined and batter is dark and shiny, add both flours, baking powder and salt. Mix until batter starts to form.
Add your chopped chocolate, and fold in until combined.
Spoon batter into a prepared square baking dish lined with parchment paper.
Bake brownies in oven for 25 - 30 minutes. Until tooth pick inserted comes out clean.

While brownies bake, prepare caramel.
In a small saucepan, add your water and sugar, mixing constantly. Bring mixture to a boil. Continuing to stir, about 4 to 5 minutes. It should be a deep golden colour.
Turn off heat and stir in butter, cream and tapioca. Whisk constantly. Let cool slightly in pan, until beginning to thicken, then pour over cooled brownies.
Sprinkle generously with sea salt.
Allow the caramel and brownies to set, at least 20 minutes, before slicing.

Enjoy!
