If you're on a diet, please look away now, I don't want to be responsible for your fall from the wagon. These indulgent chewy chocolate caramel bars with a biscuit base are a little too good. The fact I keep going back into the kitchen for "just one more" says it all really. Next week you'll find me running marathons to burn these off, but honestly, I don't care! These are so worth it.
