Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars.
I make variation of my favorite chocolate chip cookie bars all the time, but these are my favorite!! I have tried stuffing them with peanut butter, peanut butter cups, chocolate bars and a few other things but this was yummy and easy!!
When you are putting the second layer of dough on, I like to take a small ball of dough and squish it, do this over and over until the top is covered.
