Chocolate Carmel Brownies 50 caramels
First, melt: Mix: Smooth 1/2 batter into a 9"x13" pan. Cook at 350 degrees for 6 minutes in a preheated oven. Take out and sprinkle with 3/4 cup chocolate chips, then the melted caramel. Pat remaining dough on top. Cook 18 minutes longer, then cool. These are some of the best brownies I've ever tasted--perfect for those who like chocolate more than pumpkin! :-) Auction Spotlight Meet another of my fabulous Category Captains: Melody Claussen-Fury Melody Claussen-Furry is a crafty, freelance writing, stay-at-home mama of two, Madeline and Christian, who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2005. Rich, her wonderfully loving and supportive husband, puts up with her regardless of her moods. In order to raise money for the cure, Melody, along with the help from crafters the world over, established an online shop called the Sugarcube Society. When not crafting, writing or fundraising, she’s on journeys with her family. No matter where they go, it’s always an adventure!  Learn more about Melody in my 2009 Auction Spotlight.
