Dulce de Leche Turtle Brownies

Here’s the thing with brownies – they can make your day instantly better. That’s why I’m sharing my recipe for Dulce de Leche Turtle Brownies – rich chocolate base, covered in crunchy pretzels, and topped with dulce de leche. What more could you ask for? 

Dulce de Leche Turtle Brownies

If we had grown up together, you would know that my mom makes the best brownies. Hands down, the best brownies you’ll ever taste. I think I went to baking and pastry school because of those brownies – they were baked at least 3-4 times a week and we were just a small family of five. But my mother would always have a tray of them baked (she has this rectangular light blue glass pyrex pan she uses), whether it was for us or to share with friends, who also knew of my mother’s famous brownies.

Inspired by my mother’s love for making brownies (oddly enough, she doesn’t eat them as much), I’ve created plenty of brownie recipes on the blog and think that one more is necessary: these Dulce de Leche Turtle Brownies are so delicious, it’s fair enough to say they are almost as good as my mom’s. If you’ve never had dulce de leche, think of a richer caramel – it’s the Latin version of it and so delicious! You can find it at grocery stores everywhere now, as well as online.
