These are fantastic, extremely rich and gooey, easy and yummy. Everyone at our BBQ loved them. I made one small change. It seemed like the brownie was going to turn out rather thin, at least thinner than we like, so i used an 11 x 7 pan instead of a 13 x 9. To make the topping more smooth and even, I just pinched the dough into ping pong sized balls and flattened them out with my hands and then placed them so that they slightly overlapped each other. The brownies came out lovely and were gone in a flash. Using this size pan and cutting them into about 2 inch pieces yielded me 15 pieces.

Gosh, this became such a mess for me when I made it. First, all cake mixes in the store are 15-3/4 ounces and receive states 18-3/4 ounces so I bought 2 boxes. Plus 14 ounces of caramel does not equal 14 ounces of Carmel syrup. I had way too much Carmel using the Carmel syrup and I'm sure I only needed to use 1 box of cake mix. What a mess!
