Dulce de Leche Apple Streusel Bars

I decided to make dulce de leche this morning. Later I decided to look for a recipe using apples and dulce de leche, because Jay liked some apple cupcakes I make him before, and I gave most of these to Jay and his family.

Fudgy Cookie Bars

I wanted to make a fudgy sourdough bar for a Scout potluck, so I made a "slimmed down" version of my Over the Top Candy Cookie Sourdough Bars

Over the Top Candy Cookie Sourdough Bars

I've been thinking of a way to use up my leftover Halloween candy. I imagined a cookie dough shortbread base that could also be used a streusel on a bar had both a caramel layer and a chopped candy bar layer.  I came up with this mix of my Chocolate Chip Sourdough Blondies and Millionaire Shortbread Bars.

Chocolate Dulce de Leche

I wanted to make a thick chocolate caramel filling for the cookie bars I was planning to make on Saturday. I adapted ideas from a couple of recipes, and made up a chocolate Dulce de Leche.

Apple Pastry with Dulce de Leche

I wanted a sweet sourdough dessert, with layers of ricotta, apples, and caramel sauce. I came up with this recipe. 

Dulce de Leche - Instant Pot

I decided to make some dulce de leche in my Instant Pot.

 

(It worked, it was delicious. I forgot to take a picture until I used it in my recipe.)

Dulce de Leche Apple Tartlets

I made Dulce de Leche Apple tartlets for the Property Committee's snacks.
