Chocolate-Caramel Bars

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 20 vanilla caramels, unwrapped

2. Meanwhile, for filling: In a small bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and vanilla.

3. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes more or until filling is set. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.

4. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine caramels and milk. Cook and stir over medium-low heat just until caramels are melted. Drizzle caramel mixture over filling. Sprinkle with chocolate pieces. Cool completely. Cut into bars. Makes 24 bars.
