How to Make Chocolate Caramel Squares
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch square baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup graham cracker crumbs, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and set. Let cool completely in the pan.
- While the crust cools, prepare the caramel filling: In a medium saucepan, combine ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup light corn syrup, ¼ cup water, 4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter, and ¼ cup heavy cream.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until thickened, stirring constantly.
- Pour the warm caramel filling evenly over the cooled crust.
- Melt 6 ounces of dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Spread evenly over the caramel.
- Refrigerate until the dark chocolate is set.
- Melt 3 ounces of white chocolate chips in the same manner. Drizzle over the set dark chocolate.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to fully set.
- Cut into squares using a pizza cutter for clean cuts and enjoy!
