• Remove from heat and set butter and chocolate aside until completely cool.
• Once cool, stir in sugar and vanilla.

• Once level, drizzle caramel ice cream topping over brownies in a swirly pattern or zig-zag. Be careful not to get too much syrup in one spot, or it'll make a delicious, gooey hole in the finished brownies. The syrup will make a slight indentation into the brownies as they bake.
• Bake until the center of the pan is almost firm when lightly pressed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean but still moist at the bottom, 23-28 minutes.
• Remove the pan to a cooling rack and let stand several hours until completely cool.
