These No-Bake Chocolate Caramel Bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat featuring layers of rich chocolate, smooth caramel, and hearty oats. Perfect for a quick dessert or snack, they require no baking and set up in the refrigerator to create a firm, chewy bar with luxurious flavors and textures.

Ingredients

Scale

Chocolate Layer

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Caramel Layer

  • 1 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Oats Layer

  • 1 ½ cups rolled oats

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chocolate Layer: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and unsalted butter. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
  2. Form the First Layer: Spread half of the melted chocolate evenly along the bottom of a lined 8×8 inch baking pan to create a smooth base.
  3. Add the Oats Layer: Sprinkle the rolled oats evenly over the set chocolate layer, pressing them gently to ensure they stick slightly to the chocolate.
  4. Pour the Caramel Layer: Evenly drizzle the caramel sauce over the oats, spreading it gently with a spatula to cover all oats without mixing them.
  5. Top with Remaining Chocolate: Pour the remaining melted chocolate over the caramel layer, spreading it out to cover the entire surface for a final chocolate topping.
  6. Chill to Set: Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until the bars are firm enough to cut into squares.

Notes

  • Use high-quality chocolate and caramel for best flavor.
  • Press layers gently to ensure good adhesion between them.
  • Store bars refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • Optionally, add a pinch of sea salt on top for a salted caramel twist.
  • For a vegan version, choose dairy-free chocolate and caramel substitutes.
