    Those sound scruptious and I love how your kids are licking their fingers and lips. :giggle That's means they're kid approved and something I would probably love!

    @Karen - My girls would love those.

    I'm a caramel brownie girl myself and my neighbor makes the best ones. She brought over a plate full the other day and Megan and I pounded them in like 10 minutes flat. :giggle I've never made them because she always makes them for me. It all started one time when she didn't have chocolate chips and borrowed some from me. She brought some over and then I started buying all the ingredients and she would do the baking for both of us. :agree

    Caramel Brownies

    6 oz milk chocolate chip - reserve for filling

    Combine and melt in double boiler:
    50 KRAFT caramels or 14 oz KRAFT caramel bits
    1/2 cup canned evaporated milk

    Mix:
    1 German Chocolate cake mix
    3/4 cup melted butter
    1/3 cup canned evaporated milk

    Press half of cake mixture in greased 9 x 13 pan. Bake for 6 minutes on 350. Take out of oven and sprinkle 6 oz. chocolate chips on top. Drizzle caramel mixture over the chocolate chips. Crumble last half of the cake mixture on top. Bake for 18 - 20 minutes on 350.

    They're best after they have set up really well, even refrigerated.
    The caramel mixture seems to take FOREVER to melt, so get that started early.

    Seriously! I need to try some of these...especially anything with a brownie-like layer.

    Molasses cookies since I didn't see them posted yet. I've never made them but my mom makes my grandma's recipe every year and they are amazing. I need to get the recipe and practice so I can pass on the tradition.

    Girl, you have no idea. There is ONE time I can think of that she made something that no one liked. It was the first, and last, time she made it. Cooking and hostessing is her love language.

    Those look amazing too. I do believe I will have to make those this weekend. How lucky for you that your neighbor even bakes them for you! That's awesome!

    I made these this afternoon. I used SKOR toffee bits, but you can also use Heath toffee bits.

    toffee bars.jpg

    SKOR triangles

    1 cup butter or margarine, softened (250 mL)

    1 cup packed light brown sugar (250 mL)

    1 egg yolk

    1 tsp vanilla (5 mL)

    2 cups all-purpose flour (500 mL)

    1 1/4 cups SKOR Toffee Bits, divided (200 g)

    2 cups semi-sweet chocolate Chips (300 g)

    1. Heat oven to 350°F (180°C).

    2. In large bowl, beat butter and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg yolk and vanilla until creamy.

    3. Stir in flour and 1 cup (250 mL) of the toffee bits. Press into ungreased 15-1/2 x 10-1/2 inch (39 x 27 cm) jelly roll pan.

    4. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until light brown. Immediately sprinkle semi-sweet chocolate chips over top. Let stand until softened, about 5 minutes; spread evenly over top. Sprinkle with remaining toffee bits. Let cool completely. Cut into 3-inch (7.5 cm) squares; cut each square diagonally into 4 triangles.
