Chocolate Caramel Bars

My sister found an old pile of recipes we had cut out from Bon Appetit magazine and we decided to try this one. We were both drawn to the sea salt flakes on top of the chocolate glaze and were excited to see how it enhanced the flavor of the caramel center.

The full recipe can be found on epicurious. The sea salt on top is essential to this dessert and just a few flakes will alter the dish dramatically. The salt balances the sweetness of the caramel and offers a pleasing complexity to this simple bar.
