Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar, packed

  • 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9×13-inch baking dish, optionally lining it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
  3. Gradually mix in the flour and salt until just combined.
  4. Gently fold in the chocolate chips and caramel bits, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  5. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking dish, pressing it evenly into the pan.
  6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown.
  7. Immediately sprinkle flaky sea salt over the bars after removing them from the oven.
  8. Allow them to cool completely before slicing for clean cuts.

Notes

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or refrigerate for up to two weeks. Bring to room temperature before serving for optimum flavor. For extra richness, consider using dark chocolate chips. Try adding nuts or crushed pretzels for a delightful salty crunch.
