Ingredients

• 2 cups Keebler shortbread cookies (crushed into crumbs)
• 1 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
• 1.5 cups Soft caramels (unwrapped)
• 1.5 cups Milk chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Keebler shortbread cookies, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then let the crust cool for 10 minutes.

Step 4

In a medium saucepan, heat the unwrapped caramels and sweetened condensed milk over low heat, stirring constantly until the caramels are completely melted and the mixture is smooth. This will take about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the cooled crust, spreading it out with a spatula. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to help the caramel set slightly.

Step 6

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the milk chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 15-second increments, stirring well after each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.

Step 7

Pour the melted chocolate over the caramel layer, spreading it evenly with an offset spatula.

Step 8

Refrigerate the bars for 1-2 hours, or until firm and fully set.

Step 9

Once set, use the parchment overhang to lift the bars out of the pan. Cut into 12 equal portions and serve.

Step 10

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
