Layers of caramel and chocolate cover a cookie crust, creating these rich treats. I made several pans for our son's wedding and received many requests for the recipe. The scrumptious bars are also perfect for cookie exchanges.
Ingredients:
1-1/4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons cold butter
filling:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
glaze:
2 cups (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon shortening
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, combine flour and sugar. Cut in butter until crumbly. Press into a greased 9-in.-square baking pan. Bake 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.
2. Meanwhile, combine the filling ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat; boil and stir 5 minutes. Pour over warm crust.
3. In a microwave, melt chocolate chips and shortening; stir until smooth. Spread over filling. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into squares. Yield: 3 dozen.
