1

Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark pan). In ungreased 13x9-inch pan, break up cookie dough. With floured fingers, press dough evenly in pan. Bake 13 to 17 minutes or until light golden brown.
2

Remove partially baked bars from oven. Sprinkle peanuts and chocolate chips evenly over warm bars. In small bowl, mix caramel topping and flour until well blended. Drizzle evenly over top.
3

Return to oven; bake 15 to 18 minutes longer or until center just begins to bubble. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Cut into 6 rows by 6 rows. Store tightly covered.

Expert Tips

For easy removal and cutting, line the pan with foil, extending the foil over the sides of the pan.
