Method
 

Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F) and line a 20cm square baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted unsalted butter and granulated sugar until well combined. Add eggs and vanilla, beating until glossy.
  3. Sift gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, and sea salt into the wet ingredients and gently fold until just combined.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for about 20 minutes, until edges are set but center is still soft.
  5. Prepare the caramel by combining sweetened condensed milk, unsalted butter, and golden syrup in a saucepan over medium-low heat, whisking for 8-10 minutes.
  6. Pour the thick caramel mixture evenly over the baked brownie base and return to the oven for another 12-15 minutes.
  7. Allow the brownies to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  8. Melt chopped dark chocolate and unsalted butter together, stirring until smooth to create ganache.
  9. Pour ganache over the chilled caramel layer, refrigerate for 30 minutes, then slice into squares.
