Instructions
1
First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch by 8 inch pan with parchment paper.
2
Make shortbread layer first. Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl. Stir to combine. Spread into one even layer in lined pan.
3
Bake shortbread layer for 10 to 12 minutes or until middle is set and edges are slightly golden.
4
Meanwhile, make the caramel. Add caramel ingredients to a skillet over medium heat. Bring to a light boil then simmer on low heat for 8 minutes, until thick and creamy. Stir constantly to prevent burning.
5
Once shortbread layer has cooled for 10 minutes, pour caramel on top.
6
Place pan in freezer for at least 30 minutes or until hardened.
7
Then, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in microwavable bowl in 30 second increments, until melted. Or, melt in a skillet over low heat. Pour over caramel layer.
8
Place pan back in freezer for at least 30 minutes or until completely firm.
9
Finally, remove pan from freezer. Cut into bars and serve!

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Crust Density Control 🥜Press the almond flour crust firmly and evenly into the pan using the bottom of a measuring cup, then pre-bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes to prevent a soggy base when the caramel layer is added.
- Caramel Temperature Precision 🌡️Heat the nut butter and maple syrup mixture to exactly 240°F (soft-ball stage) before adding coconut oil, ensuring the caramel sets to the perfect chewy texture without becoming grainy or too soft.
- Chocolate Tempering Technique 🍫Melt dark chocolate chips with a small amount of coconut oil using the double-boiler method, then let cool slightly to 88°F before coating to achieve a glossy finish and satisfying snap when bitten.
- Layering & Chilling Strategy ❄️Refrigerate between each layer (crust 15 min, caramel 20 min, chocolate 30 min) to prevent layers from mixing and ensure clean, defined separation for professional-looking bars.
- Cutting Technique for Clean Edges ✂️Use a hot, wet knife to cut bars while slightly frozen—dip the knife in hot water and wipe dry between each cut for clean edges without chocolate cracking or caramel smudging.
