Million Dollar Caramel Bar

Interesting name for a chocolate caramel bar! That's exactly why I got so interested in trying to bake this so called expensive sweet. Well, the result was good... I had to try the recipe 3x before I got the perfect composition.

my $100,000 drizzled with barley mint chocolate

The recipe I got from KAF use shortbread instead of cookie as it's base, I didn't like it as much and decided to just bake vanilla cookies instead. So... Here it is... the bars that worth a hundred grands!
