Caramel Frosted Chocolate Chip Brownie Bars

The inspiration for these Caramel Frosted Chocolate Chip Brownie Bars struck when I stumbled upon a half a bag of chocolate chips in my pantry that were left over from a dessert experiment earlier in the month.

It’s a lot of fun to look through the cabinets and see what kinds of ingredients you have on hand so you can get creative and make something new.

I love incorporating my daughter in these experiments and together we have come up with some delicious treats in the past.

When brainstorming ideas with my ingredients the only help she was willing to give me this time was that she definitely wanted brownies of some kind so that was my starting point.

I then decided to incorporate a delicious caramel topping to these brownie bars and to also fill them with a little crunch from the chocolate chips.

It turns out this mixture was meant to be and these Caramel Frosted Chocolate Chip Brownie Bars are a new family favorite. Caramel Frosted Chocolate Chip Brownie Bars

I am also excited that I now have a delicious caramel frosting recipe to use for the Fall when we want to coat our apples and make caramel chews.

This caramel frosting recipe is the perfect one for all of our caramel needs and I can not wait to try it out on top of cupcakes and drizzled on homemade ice cream.
