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.
