Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cup Vermont Creamery Unsalted Cultured Butter
  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 recipe of the best caramel
  • 4 ounces dark chocolate, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 9 x 13 inch pan with parchment on all sides. Set aside.
  2. In a food processor combine the flour, sugar, salt, and Vermont Creamery Cultured Butter. Pulse until just combined and the mixture forms a dough ball.
  3. Press the dough into the prepared pan, using your hands to spread the dough into an even layer.
  4. Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes or until just light golden brown. Take out of the oven and allow the bars to cool completely.
  5. While the bars cool make the homemade caramel according to directions. Allow the caramel to come to room temperature before using!
  6. Once the bars are cool use a spoon to drizzle the bars with caramel and chocolate. Pop the bars in the freezer for a few minutes or the fridge for a half hour to set. Once set, use a large sharp knife to cut into desired size rectangles. Enjoy!
