How to Make Caramel Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup packed brown sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until a crumbly dough forms.
- Press half of the dough into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- While the crust bakes, in a microwave-safe bowl, melt 14 ounces caramels and ¼ cup heavy whipping cream in 30 second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Remove the crust from the oven. Evenly distribute 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips over the baked crust. Drizzle the melted caramel over the chocolate chips. Crumble the remaining crust mixture evenly over the caramel layer.
- Bake for another 12-15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the caramel is bubbly.
- Let cool completely before cutting into bars. Enjoy!
