Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs
  • 5 oz evaporated milk
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 14 oz caramels (soft, unwrapped)
  • 2 1/4 cups all‑purpose flour, unbleached
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups semi‑sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
  3. Beat eggs, then add brown sugar and peanut butter; mix until smooth.
  4. Gradually stir dry ingredients into wet mixture.
  5. Spread half of the dough in the pan as the first layer.
  6. Melt caramels with evaporated milk over low heat, stirring until smooth.
  7. Pour caramel over the cookie base.
  8. Drop spoonfuls of remaining dough over caramel and sprinkle chocolate chips on top.
  9. Bake 25‑30 minutes until golden brown.
  10. Cool completely, then slice into twelve bars.

Notes

  • For a saltier contrast
  • sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before baking. Use high‑quality soft caramels for a smoother caramel layer. Let bars cool fully before cutting to prevent crumbling. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days
  • or freeze for longer storage.
