How to Make Baker's Chocolate Caramel Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium saucepan, melt 14 ounces (397g) caramels and 1/2 cup (120ml) evaporated milk over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Alternatively, microwave on medium power for 5 minutes, stirring every minute until smooth.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 cups (150g) rolled oats, 1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks, 227g) unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press half of the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 8x8 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- Evenly sprinkle 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup (60g) chopped walnuts over the baked crust.
- Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the chocolate and nuts.
- Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture evenly over the caramel layer.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes longer, or until the topping is golden brown and the caramel is bubbly.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars.
