I agree with everyone else. This was not crumbly it was a batter. If I make these again, I will adjust the milk.

The cake mixture was difficult to pat into pan. I dropped the remaining batter in clumps on top of the caramel mixture. We love gooey but these were a mess. I was taking them to an event the same day I made them and had to put the pan in the freezer to firm them up so I could at least cut them into bars. I love to bake but won't make this again.

I too followed the recipe exactly and my crust was to wet! I was difficult to "pat" into the pan.So I spread it as best I could, then dropped more batter on the top.(not crumbled as recipe says) The bars were still good and chewy, but had the consistency of a brownie. Next time, I think I will cut the evaporated milk down to a 5 oz. can, not a 12 oz. can. Maybe then the batter will be crumbly. Great taste though!

I followed this recipe exactly but my batter was more of a consistency of regular cake batter...definitely not something that could be "patted" into the dish. But, I went with it anyway and adjusted the cook times by several minutes. Overall, they came out okay...not at all crunchy and more of a brownie texture. I would definitely decrease the amount of butter and/or evaporated milk before trying again.

Only giving 1 * because these "cookies" are a gooey mess. There's really no other flavor than caramel. Might as well just eat a caramel. Sorry, not for me.

This was a big hit at work! Just to make it easier on me the second time, I had not used the milk and caramels. Instead, I used caramel ice cream topping. Both versions are tasty. Super chewy, very sweet, and great with a big glass of ice-cold milk!
