- Base Layer:
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flower
- 4 ounces butter softened (1 stick)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- Caramel Layer:
- 4 ounces butter
- 2/3 cup soft brown sugar
- 1/2 can sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
- Chocolate Layer:
- 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- sea salt
Put all base layer ingredients in a bowl and work together with a fork until you get a dough consistency. Press mixture into an 11x17 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until it’s golden brown. Watch carefully not to burn.
For the caramel, mix together all ingredients expect vanilla in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook for 7 minutes, stirring constantly. Take off the heat and mix in the vanilla. Pour over the base layer and allow to cool.
NOTE* To clean the caramel from the pan, fill the pot with water and bring to a boil. The caramel residue will disintegrate.
Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave (cook for :30s, stir, repeat until melted). Pour and spread carefully over the caramel layer. Immediately sprinkle with sea salt. Chill before cutting into one inch slivers.
