Get your caramel on.

CARAMEL LAYER COOKIE BARS No such thing as too many cookies…so here ya’ go. These were created to use with a commercial caramel sauce…one of my favorite things on earth.  You can find it in this link at Torani and a little goes a long way, so the jug will last awhile.   If you can’t…
