How to Make Cashew Caramel Yummies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9x2-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. Add 2 large eggs, 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, and 1 cup chopped cashews. Mix until just combined.
  4. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  6. While the base is baking, prepare the caramel topping: In a medium saucepan, combine ½ cup unsalted butter, 1 cup heavy cream, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, and ½ cup chopped cashews.
  7. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved. Bring to a gentle simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
  8. Remove the baked base from the oven and immediately pour the hot caramel topping evenly over it.
  9. Cover the pan completely with aluminum foil.
  10. Place under a preheated broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully, until the topping is bubbly and lightly browned. (Keep a close eye to prevent burning).
  11. Let cool completely before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
