Galaxy Salted Caramel Cookie Bars

Hey everyone! You all absolutely loved my last cookie bar recipe so I had to get another one up straight away! They were one of my favourite recipes I had created and I have so many different variations I cannot wait to try! I did a few polls on instagram and Galaxy salted caramel was one of the most requested. This has been one of my go to bars for years! Its so delicious. I am obsessed with anything salted caramel.

These cookie bar recipes are probably one of the easiest recipes on my blog. No fuss at all as they just go straight into the oven. No waiting for them to chill. So your cookie bars will be ready in no time! I love my cookie bars still slightly gooey, but if this isn’t for you just add 5-10 minutes onto your cooking time.

These cookie bars are insane warmed up slightly with some vanilla ice cream, a sprinkle of flakey salt and some extra caramel drizzle. They are an incredible dessert! They will certainly impress a lot of people!

Happy baking guys! <3 Any questions just DM me on Instagram x
