Prepare brownies according to package directions. Grease a mini-
muffin tin with cooking spray and fill each cup approximately 3/4
full with batter. Bake for 12-15 minutes until a toothpick inserted
comes out clean. Remove from oven and immediately press a
candy into the center of each brownie bite. (The top of the candy
will protrude a bit from the brownie...it’s OK...you’ll cover it with
icing.) Cool for a couple of minutes in the tin then carefully remove
the brownie bites from the pan to a cooking rack. Allow to cool
completely.
To make the frosting, use the paddle attachment on a stand mixer
and beat the butter and cream cheese together until smooth. Add
the caramel sauce and blend. Add the confectioners sugar and
whip until creamy and smooth. Using a pastry or plastic bag with a
piping tip, pipe the frosting onto the top of each brownie bite.
Chill in the refrigerator to set the frosting a bit before serving.
To make homemade caramel sauce, simple empty the contents of
a small can of sweetened condensed milk into a saucepan. Stir
constantly for 10 to 12 minutes over medium heat. (Do not let it
scorch.) The milk will begin to deepen in color and thicken.
Remove from heat when the caramel will thickly adhere to the back
of your mixing spoon. The longer you cook it, the harder it will
become when it cools until it is difficult to work with. To thin it,
add a small splash of milk and mix well.
