Chocolate Caramel Bars



Enjoy these Chocolate Caramel Bars with a buttery crust, gooey caramel-chocolate filling, and crumbly topping. A delicious treat for any occasion!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup caramel bits
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions:

Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper in a 9x13-inch baking pan

Melt the butter and mix it with the sugar in a large bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy

Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix them in well

Add the flour and salt slowly while mixing until just combined

Set the baking pan aside and press two-thirds of the dough into it to make an even crust

After the oven is hot, bake the crust for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden

Put the chocolate chips and caramel bits in a bowl that can go in the microwave

Heat for 30 seconds at a time, stirring each time, until it melts and is smooth

Add the heavy cream and stir until the mixture is smooth and well mixed

Spread the chocolate-caramel mix out evenly over the baked crust after you pour it on

On top of the chocolate-caramel layer, crumble the rest of the dough

Put the pan back in the oven and bake for another 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown

Take it out of the oven and put a wire rack in the pan so it can cool all the way down

After it has cooled, put it in the fridge for one to two hours to let the caramel layer set

When the bars are hard, use the extra parchment paper to lift them out of the pan and place them on a cutting board

Use a sharp knife to cut it into squares or bars

Serve and have fun!
