This is a bar you just cannot go wrong with! I used homemade salted caramel in this recipe and the were deemed irresistible!! These chocolate chip cookie dough billionaire bars were adapted from Love and Olive Oil.

(Recipe adapted from The Cookie Dough Lover’s Cookbook)

Print CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DOUGH BILLIONAIRE BARS Ingredients Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Billionaire BarsYield: 16 bars Bars ⅓ cup SOFT butter

⅓ cup granulated sugar

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

¼ teaspoon salt

1 cup flour For the Caramel 7 ounces soft caramel candies (about 25 candies), unwrapped

2 tablespoons heavy cream

(or use my recipe for homemade salted caramel) For the Cookie Dough: ½ cup soft butter ( I actually messed this part up and only used about 4T. but I liked it that way lol ....I used just enough to hold it all together and pressed it onto the caramel layer rather than "spread" it. Will definitely make it this way again-was perfect for us!!!)

½ cup light brown sugar

¼ cup granulated sugar

2 T. heavy cream

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

¾ cup all-purpose flour

Pinch of salt

½ cup mini semisweet chocolate chips For the Chocolate Glaze: 4 ounces semisweet chocolate chips

1 tablespoon unsalted butter Instructions Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with nonstick foil. Make the Shortbread: Beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and salt. Add flour and combine. May be crumbly. Press into pan and poke with a fork. Bake 18 to 22 minutes....want it to brown a bit so will be crispy later! Let cool. Make the Caramel Layer: Microwave the caramels and cream gently until smooth. Pour hot caramel on crust and stick in freezer until firm. Make the Cookie Dough: Combine the butter and sugars in a large mixing bowl and beat, Add the cream and vanilla, Add the flour and salt until incorporated. Stir in the chocolate chips. Spread the cookie dough on top of the caramel using a spatula to smooth it evenly. Freeze again. Make the Chocolate Glaze: In a small bowl, combine the chocolate and butter and microwave on 50% power in 30-second increments until smooth. Spread the glaze over the cookie dough layer and freeze until set. Cut into bars! freeze really well!!!! Won't last that long......so delish they will be gobbled up! Like what you see?
