  • Cook Time 20 minutes
  • Yield 12 bars 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (260g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup (168g) unsalted butter (room temperature)
  • ½ cup (112g) light brown sugar (packed)
  • ¼ cup (52g) sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ¼ cups (211g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 32 unwrapped Kraft caramel squares
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
  3. In a large mixer bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until well blended.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the mixture and mix until mostly combined, being careful not to over mix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips to form a uniform cookie dough.

Notes

For a richer flavor, consider using dark chocolate chips.
Allow the bars to cool completely before cutting for cleaner edges.
These bars can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
