Chocolate Caramel Butter Bars
Report
These Chocolate Caramel Butter Bars remind me of a shortbread cookie that was kissed by chocolate and slathered with caramel. Adapted from American Heritage.

Ingredients
Crust and Topping
- 1 1/2 cups butter room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tbsp vanilla extract
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- salt pinch
- 1/2 cup almonds slivered
Filling
- 1 cup caramel sauce (See Note 1)
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- sea salt pinch, flakes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a 9x13” baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl combine butter and sugars, mix until creamy and add the vanilla. Mix until combined.
- Slowly add the flour to the butter mixture on low speed until a soft dough forms.
- 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.
- 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.
- Continue baking until the topping is firm and lightly golden, about 25-30 minutes.
- Let cool before cutting into 24 bars.
Notes
- Substitute 8 ounces of caramel candies or 1 cup caramel chips for caramel sauce if needed. Sprinkle some sea salt flakes on top of caramel before adding crumb topping.
