Caramel-glazed brownies

I poured the caramel glaze on while the brownies were still warm and watched it run. That’s the whole event here. The squares in the front corner got an unfair amount of it and I’m not sorry. I ate one before cutting the rest and couldn’t tell you anymore whether I liked it for the chocolate or the caramel or just the fact that my kitchen counter was a disaster and I’d done it to myself, on purpose, on a Friday.

A sheet of parchment on a granite counter holding a tray of dark, fudgy brownies cut into squares and flooded with a tan dulce-de-leche glaze that has pooled around the edges.
