Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package Betty Crocker Caramel Apple Cookie Mix, plus ingredients listed on the box (or use Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix for a class salted caramel dessert)
  • 1/3 cup caramel topping (Ghirardelli recommended for extra richness)
  • Coarse sea salt, to taste
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, then lightly spray with baking spray—this will make them easier to pull out as the caramel will be sticky!
  2. Make the cookie dough according to the package instructions. Press about two-thirds of the dough evenly into the bottom of your prepared pan.
  3. Pour the caramel topping over the dough layer, spreading it gently. Sprinkle a touch of sea salt over the caramel for that perfect salted caramel flavor.
  4. Crumble the remaining dough over the caramel layer, then sprinkle with chopped pecans for an addedcrunch.
  5. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the edges are caramelized and the top is golden brown.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the bars to cool completely before slicing. Enjoy the rich, gooey goodness!
