Instructions

1.
**Prepare the brownie batter:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan. In a heatproof bowl set over a simmering pot of water (double boiler), melt butter and chocolate chips together until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
2.
In a separate bowl, whisk together granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add to the melted chocolate mixture and mix until well combined.
3.
Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
4.
In another bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
5.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
6.
**Make the miso caramel:** In a saucepan over medium heat, cook sugar until melted and amber in color, stirring constantly. Be careful not to burn it.
7.
Carefully whisk in heavy cream. The mixture will bubble up.
8.
Remove from heat and stir in butter and miso paste until smooth and combined.
9.
**Assemble and bake:** Pour brownie batter into the prepared pan. Dollop miso caramel over the batter and swirl with a knife or toothpick.
10.
Sprinkle crushed ramen noodles evenly over the top of the brownie batter.
11.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
12.
Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Chef's Tips

Don't overbake the brownies for a fudgy texture.

Adjust the amount of miso paste to your liking for a saltier or sweeter caramel.

For a smoother caramel, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve after cooking.

Toast the crushed ramen noodles in a dry pan for a few minutes for extra crispiness and flavor.

Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an even more decadent dessert.
