Chocolate Caramel Butter Bars

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a 9x13” baking dish with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl combine butter and sugars, mix until creamy and add the vanilla. Mix until combined.

Step 3

Slowly add the flour to the butter mixture on low speed until a soft dough forms.

Step 4

Using your hands press 1/3 of the dough into the prepared baking pan, and bake for 20 minutes or until the edges are a pale golden brown.

Step 5

Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of partially baked crust. Pour caramel sauce over chocolate chips, then sea salt flakes. Crumble the remaining dough and slivered almonds over top.

Step 6

Continue baking until the topping is firm and lightly golden, about 25-30 minutes.

Step 7

Let cool before cutting into 24 bars.
