Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees and spray a 9×13 pan with baking spray and line with parchment paper with the parchment paper going up the sides of the pan.
- In your stand mixer add the butter and beat until creamed and lighter in color, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the sugar, salt and vanilla and combine completely.
- Add the flour and combine until the flour is no longer visible, do not over-mix.
- Press evenly into the bottom of the pan and bake for 20-25 minutes until just browning.
- Let the crust cool completely before adding the caramel sauce.
- In a microwave safe bowl add the caramel squares and heavy cream.
- Cover with a wet paper towel and microwave in 30 second increments.
- When it is melted enough to fully whisk together pour it over the shortbread crust in an even layer.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes until caramel is hardened.
- Slice the bars into 26 pieces, about 1" thick and 4 1/2" long.
- Melt the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second increments and stir the chocolate between each time you microwave it (It usually takes 2 to 3 times to fully melt).
- Line two baking sheets with wax paper.
- Dip the chocolate bars into the chocolate, allow the excess chocolate to tap off the sides, then place onto the wax paper.
- Drizzle the tops of the chocolate with remaining chocolate after dipping.
- Let set in the fridge for 20 minutes before eating.
