I was so excited about this recipe and how delicious these bars turned out, that I decided to bake more a couple of days later.
I actually took some of these to my favorite neighbor – she absolutely loved them (well, who wouldn’t, right?) and wanted to have the recipe, too! I bet she made a batch of her own as soon as I got out of the house! Check out what my friends at Butter with a Side of Bread had to say about these chocolate caramel bars:
These are delicious! There’s not enough caramel for me, so I double the quantity, and boil for about 90 seconds. I also sprinkle some coarse sea salt over the caramel before adding the chocolate chips. I make millionaire’s shortbread quite often and it’s an absolute production! This is so much easier, and just as tasty.
It’s all about the easy, isn’t it? That’s why I love recipes like this so I was thrilled to put this one in the recipe box for later. Truth be told, I don’t even know if I’ll need it, this was so simple I probably already have it committed to memory. Now I make sure to always have the ingredients.. you know.. just in case!

1 cup Gold Medal all-purpose flour
1/2 cup + 1/4 cup Domino brown sugar

What are these called?
Chocolate Caramel Bars
Where is the caramel?
From the butter and brown sugar you melt together.
The caramel is the melted brown sugar and butter!
What is the recipe?
For breakfast? I don’t think so…
Hmmm. it just says butter, but it sounds like the butter should be chilled and not soft if you are going t ouse 2 forks to make it crumbly.
If you sprinkled nuts —– I love walnuts but almonds or pecans would be good—–it would add some protein for a better “occasional” breakfast LOL And what would be wrong with toffee bars?
Why does it not say to bake the base before adding the caramel and chocolate. Do not follow this recipe. All others say to bake the base first.
Why is this last msg. on here without an explanation after the message ??? Now I am confused…..can you please comment ? It is your recipe and you should know how it’s suppose to be cooked !!!
