Ingredients

• ½ pound unsalted butter room temperature
• 1 cup light brown sugar lightly packed
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 12 ounces chocolate chopped
• ½ cup salted caramel sauce

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350° F.
2. Grease and flour an 9 x 13 x 2-inch baking pan.
3. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on high speed for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. With the mixer on low, add the vanilla. Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix well, scraping down the bowl after each addition.
4. In a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. With the mixer still on low, slowly add the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Fold in the chocolate chips with a rubber spatula.
5. Microwave salted caramel until the consistency is runny but not liquid, about 15 to 30 seconds depending the power of your microwave.
6.  Spread the ½ of the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Pour caramel on top of first layer and smooth over cookie dough. Top with remaining ½ of the dough.
7. Bake for 30 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Be careful not to over bake. The toothpick may have melted chocolate on it but shouldn’t have wet batter. Cool completely in the pan and cut into bars.
