Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (30 oz) roll of refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
- 1 (11 oz) bag kraft caramels
- 1/4 cup evaporated milk
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9 x 13 pan with non-stick spray.
- Press a little more than half of the cookie dough roll evenly into the bottom of the pan.
- Bake for 20 minutes and remove from the oven to cool slightly.
- Unwrap the caramels and combine them with evaporated milk in a saucepan, melting together over low heat while stirring frequently.
- Once the cookie base is slightly cooled, sprinkle the chocolate chips over it, then drizzle the melted caramel evenly on top.
- Crumble the remaining cookie dough over the caramel layer, not needing perfection.
- Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 15-16 minutes until it starts to turn golden brown.
- Allow to cool before cutting and serving.
Notes
Make sure to let the caramel cool slightly before adding it to prevent it from melting the chocolate chips too much.
You can substitute the milk chocolate chips with other chocolate types if preferred.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to four days.
