My friend Liz (From That Skinny Chick Can Bake) and I have this awesome monthly feature called Two Sweetie Pies. Each month, we choose a recipe from the other’s blog and feature it. We do not tell each other which recipe we are working on until reveal day which is always so exciting!
This month I went with a buttery, melt in your mouth treat!!!! Liz stuffed her bars with a fantastic caramel., I had just bought Trader Joe’s Dulce De Leche and so I used that instead. These bars need to be eaten in a quiet spot and a cup of coffee. They are that good….you’ll want to savor every single bite!

I just recently discovered the divine dulce da leche, I bought it to make a cake. Of course I had to taste it first and let’s just say there was no cake!! It was the most decadent thing to come from a can!! It was great on apple slices and saltines, frankly I couldn’t find anything it wasn’t good on!! Buy two cans of that beautiful carmel delight, just in case you need to taste!!
