Tips for Success
- Filling Consistency : Be careful not to overload the bars with caramel or chocolate—it should be enough to fill but not spill over.
- Sealing Technique : Press the edges of the puff pastry firmly to avoid leaks during baking.
- Cooling Time : Let the bars cool slightly before handling—they’ll firm up as they rest.
Variations
- Nutty Twist : Fold chopped pecans, almonds, or walnuts into the caramel mixture for added texture.
- Spicy Kick : Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the caramel for heat enthusiasts.
- Gluten-Free Option : Use gluten-free puff pastry sheets for those with dietary restrictions.
- Dairy-Free Version : Replace chocolate chips with dairy-free alternatives and use plant-based butter for melting.
