I liked the cookie part, the nuts and the chocolate. The caramel part was way too sweet. What would be good would be to make this a salted caramel bar.. add some kosher salt when the caramel is poured on.. one of these times I'll try this

These were delicous and easy...to make. To cut is another story. I lined my pan with foil and let the bars set overnight. When I went to cut them in the morning, the chocolate and carmel made them quite gooey. Delicous to eat, difficult to present. I would recommend refrigeration for at least an hour before they're cut. I will make them again for sure since they were so easy and tasted great. Lesson learned on the cutting stage though.

Fabulous bar recipe! The only thing I had to do a bit differently was use Smuckers butterscotch topping because the store was out of the caramel one. I did have a bit of the caramel one at home so I taste-tested the two together and there wasn't a huge difference between the two. The only tip I might suggest is that if you, like me, get annoyed by cutting in butter, I have another bar recipe where the crust is exactly like this one, same ingredients, same taste, and the directions call for mixing it in with a hand mixer instead of cutting in, and it ends up nice and crumbly, perfect for pressing into a pan.

Over rated. Not at all flavorful. Maybe its the caramel, maybe it'd be better with semi-sweet chips. Blah flavor.

These things are SIN-FULL!! Wow what a wonderful rich treat. I used Hershey's Caramel Syrup, baked it until it bubbled & texture/ consistency was perfect! Ate too many of these in too short a time, but they are superb!

WAY too sweet for us. also really messy. like a previous reviewer, i wanted to cut them in smaller squares, but couldn't because of the crumbly crust and oozy caramel.
