Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9×9 inch baking pan.
Make the shortbread crust by mixing room temperature butter, flour, powdered sugar, and salt until crumbly. Press into the bottom of the pan and bake for 15 minutes.
Prepare the caramel layer by combining sweetened condensed milk, butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat until smooth and thickened. Pour over baked crust.
For the brownie layer, mix granulated sugar, cocoa powder, flour, powdered sugar, and salt in one bowl; add eggs, oil, melted butter, water, and vanilla in another bowl. Combine both mixtures and fold in chocolate chips. Pour over caramel layer.
Bake for 25–30 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean but moist. Let cool.
For ganache topping, warm heavy cream until simmering; stir in dark chocolate chips and butter until melted and smooth. Pour over cooled brownies.
Let set before cutting into squares.
