Tips:

- Use a metal 9x13 inch pan for baking, as it conducts heat evenly and prevents burning. - Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough and chewy texture. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. - If you do not have a candy thermometer, you can test the caramel by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, it is ready. - You can add a variety of mix-ins to the batter, such as chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruit, or toffee bits. - If you find the caramel too sweet, you can reduce the amount of sugar. However, do not reduce it by more than 1/2 cup, or the caramel will not set properly. - These bars can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. They can also be frozen for up to 2 months.
