Blondie Caramel Heaven Recipes

BEST EVER SALTED CARAMEL BLONDIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a parchment paper sling (see notes) for a 13x9 baking pan and spray with non-stick baking spray.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
• In a medium bowl, whisk sugar and melted butter together until fully combined. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla.
• Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the flour mixture.
• Once the mixture is fully combined, fold in the white chocolate chips and set aside.
• Add the caramel bits and heavy cream to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave at 50% power in 30 second increments, stirring after each time, until smooth and fully combined. Allow the caramel mixture to cool slightly- not so much that it becomes thick and hard, but you don't want it piping hot either.
• While the caramel is cooling, scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
• After the caramel has cooled slightly, carefully drizzle it over the batter. Use a knife to create a marbled swirl by running the knife in the opposite direction of the drizzle. (If you drizzled the caramel horizontally, use the knife to make vertical strokes.)
• Bake until the top is shiny and cracked slightly, it should feel slightly firm to the touch (not jiggly), about 30-35 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking.
• Immediately after removing from the oven, top with flaky sea salt. (Just a generous pinch across the top.)
• Let the blondies cool in the baking pan for 10 minutes. Remove the blondies from the baking pan and cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into bars.

BLONDIE CARAMEL HEAVEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a small saucepan combine caramels and 1/2 cup of evaporated milk. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth; set aside. Grease an 8x10 inch baking pan.
• In a large bowl, stir together the dry cake mix, melted butter and remaining 1/2 cup of evaporated milk. Press half of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, reserving the rest.
• Bake for 6 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove the pan from the oven and let cool slightly. Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the surface. Pour the caramel mixture over the chocolate chips, then top with the remaining cake mixture. The top should be swirled with caramel and cake mixture.
• Return pan to the oven for an additional 18 to 20 minutes, until firm. Cool on a wire rack, then refrigerate for 1 hour before cutting into bars.
