INGREDIENTS

Servings: 25 (1-bar)

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 package fudge brownie mix
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup Cholula® Original Hot Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips, divided
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 113 grams cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1/4 cup dulce de leche

INSTRUCTIONS

  • 1 Preheat oven to 175°C. Spray 8-inch square baking pan with no stick cooking spray. Mix brownie mix, egg, oil, Hot Sauce and water in large bowl just until blended. Gently stir in 2/3 cup of the chocolate chips. Pour into prepared pan. Sprinkle remaining chocolate chips evenly over top.
  • 2 Bake 33 - 36 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely.
  • 3 Meanwhile, beat heavy cream and cream cheese in large bowl with electric mixer just until thickened, about 1 minute. With the mixer running, gradually add powdered sugar, beating until stiff peaks form, about 1 to 2 minutes. Drizzle in dulce de leche, stirring gently to create swirls of caramel in the frosting. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • 4 Cut brownies into bars and serve topped with Whipped Dulce de Leche Frosting.
