Ingredients
116.5-ounce rollPillsbury cookie dough
112-ounce packagesemi-sweet chocolate chips
113.4-ounce candulce de leche
1cupchopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
Line a 9x13 baking dish with heavy-duty aluminum foil, making sure it comes up and overhangs a bit so you can easily pull it out later. Spray this lightly with baking spray. Pat cookie dough out into the bottom of the prepared pan to cover it.
1 16.5-ounce roll Pillsbury cookie dough
Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. Allow it to cool completely.
Empty caramel into a bowl and microwave it at 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until soft and spreadable (about 1-2 minutes). Pour on top of the cooled cookie crust and spread to the edges.
1 13.4-ounce can dulce de leche
Sprinkle the entire bag of chocolate chips evenly over the top of this and place it in a 350-degree oven until the chips become soft (3-4 minutes). Remove from the oven and gently spread the chocolate so that it covers the caramel. Sprinkle pecans over the top, if desired.
Allow the bars to cool until almost hardened and then score the bars into little squares with a knife before it hardens completely. Cover and refrigerate to harden all the way. Remove bars from the pan by using aluminum foil. Cut along the scored lines into little squares. Enjoy!
