Salted caramel cookie bars

1. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees and grease a 9X9 inch square pan.

2. Combine your butter with the sugars and mix together until smooth. Add in the eggs and vanilla and combine.

3. Shift together the flour, baking soda, and salt and slowly combine to the wet ingredients. Stir in the chocolate chips.

4. Press half the dough into the bottom of the pan and use your fingers to make it nice and smooth.

5. Melt the caramel if it's not already soft, combine with the cream, and pour onto the bottom layer. Try to avoid the edges as best you can. Sprinkle with some sea salt.

6. Press the remaining dough on top of the caramel layer to form the top half and sprinkle additional sea salt to finish them off.

7. Bake for 30 minutes or until the edges start to brown and pull away from the pan. Cool to room temperature then store in the fridge for an hour or so to help them set before you cut into them.
