The Duncan Hines Caramel Flavor Frosting Creations makes these already delicious brownies absolutely spectacular! The caramel frosting creates the perfect frame for the toffee, then it is swirled into the brownie batter before baking and more is drizzled on top when the brownies are done. Definitely a top-shelf dessert!
