TWD: Caramel Crunch Bars

First, let me say that I am very proud of myself. I completed all the TWD baking this month. I didn't skip a week, which is surprising because I honestly thought I'd end up missing out on a week. But I didn't, so yay! Second, I must say thanks to Whitney of What's Left on the Table? for picking a great recipe for this week. This is a recipe I wouldn't normally have done because I'm typically not intrigued by bar recipes, but after this bar I am tempted to try more recipes like this one. The bars had more of chocolate taste than a caramel taste, but I think that's because chocolate was worked into every element of this recipe. It's actually partially my fault chocolate was in everything because instead of using toffee bits I just chopped up a toffee bar. But can anyone really complain about more chocolate? ;-)

Make sure to stop by Whitney's blog to say "Hi!" and don't forget to give the other TWDers some love this week!
Great Bar.
Amazing crust.

Your bars look amazing. You're right: what's not to love about chocolate and toffee paired together? Sounds like a match made in heaven--and looks like one, judging from your pictures!

Your bars look wonderful! I also thought that chocolate was the dominant flavor in these bars. They weren't my favorite but I'm glad you liked them!
