Caramel Peanut Butter Blondies

PrintPrint Recipe
  • Yield: 24 bars
  • Prep Time: 0:25
  • Bake Time: 28 to 32 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 package (9 ounces) Werther's Original Baking Caramels, divided
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1-1/4 cups brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup Karo® Dark Corn Syrup
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 package (12 ounces or 2 cups ) semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Reserve 6 caramels and set aside. Melt butter and the remaining caramels in a 2-quart microwave-safe bowl for 1 to 2 minutes until caramels are melted. Stir in peanut butter and salt until smooth.
  3. Beat sugar, eggs, corn syrup and vanilla in a large mixer bowl with electric mixer until well blended, about 2 minutes. Add caramel mixture, baking powder and baking soda.
  4. Gradually add flour; mix until well blended. Set aside 1/2 cup chocolate chips; stir in remaining chips.
  5. Spread batter into a greased 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Sprinkle reserved 1/2 cup chocolate chips evenly over the batter. Bake for 28 to 32 minutes until golden brown, or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.
  6. Microwave remaining caramels and 1 teaspoon water until caramels have melted. Drizzle over warm bars. Allow bars to cool on a wire rack.
