Caramel Crunch Buttons

This week's challenge for Tuesdays with Dorie is Caramel Crunch Bars. I mini-sized mine as buttons made in mini muffin cups and they came out pretty darn cute. Not much to report on these, to be honest. They have a buttery shortbread crust scented with a bit of espresso, studded with dark of chocolate and topped with dark chocolate and toffee bits. Mmm mmm good. I think that says it all.


If you'd like to try your hand at these as either buttons or bars, you can find the recipe on Whitney's blog, What's Left on the Table.

Very nice touch, Kitty!

How very adorable.

What a brilliant idea.

Unfortunately, I don't have the patience to do minis. I so wish I did.

They're really cute! These were so rich that the small size would be perfect.

I like the idea of the minis. I'm afraid that I would keep popping them in my mouth, however.

Teanna, I WISH they were good for portion control. Instead, I just eat two small ones instead of one big bar. Oh well. :) Thanks for the kind words.

These little buttons rock! I am so stealing this idea! I bet this makes them the perfect serving size.
