These were quick and easy to make. They were *almost* all gone at the large dinner I brought them to. Everyone loved them.

*mine were runny – I guess “cool completely” means they need to be refrigerated, because I served them 5 hours after prep and they were too runny.
*stay close to the 1/4 tsp of sea salt! it was pretty powerful.

These are just perfect. I have made them several times already and have gotten many compliments on them. I sprinkle sea salt on the top and use caramel topping instead of butterscotch.

Crazy, crazy rich. I loved the edges, but the middle was a bit too sweet and gooey for me. I’m thinking less caramel, or substituting fruit preserves, would make it perfect. But it disappeared fast at the party I took it to.

I would love to give thse more stars. Took them into work and they didn’t get the wow reaction I was looking for. Everyone ate a little but they are VERY rich so you need to cut them up in very small bars. No one went back for seconds unfortunately. The largest jar of caramel I could find was 16 oz. and I thought the caramel was still very runny even though I put the full 6 tbsp. in. I wasn’t sure if that was how it was supposed to be? Love the idea of these though…

Fantastic! There’s not much else I can say. Easy to make…yet they make such an impression…like you worked really hard to get that great flavor.

Holly: I’m soo glad that you like these bars and I’m so excited that it’s going to be part of your birthday celebration! Yes, I agree – the extra sprinkle of salt on top does enhance the flavor.

Greenjean: Wow – what great tips! Thank you so much for sharing with all of us!

for all those wanting to reduce the calories a little bit – I used one stick butter and one small container of plain nonfat Greek yogurt instead of the full cup of butter. They still came out wonderfully and were enjoyed by many at the bluegrass fest in SF last weekend.

Okay, these are now my favorite dessert on this earth, and that is really saying something. I mean, these are terrifically fantastic. Make sure and add the kosher salt on top at the end because the salt really compliments the sweetness of the bar. I’m going to ask my husband to make these for my birthday instead of cake!
