Step 1: Prepare the Base (Optional)
– In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and powdered sugar. Mix until well combined.
– Press the mixture into the bottom of an 8×8-inch baking dish lined with parchment paper or greased with butter. Set aside.
#### Step 2: Make the Caramel Layer
– In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar, sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, and salt.
– Bring the mixture to a simmer while stirring constantly. Let it cook for about 4-5 minutes, or until it thickens slightly.
– Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Pour the caramel over the prepared base (if using) or directly into your baking dish. Let it cool and set for about 15-20 minutes.
#### Step 3: Make the Fudge Layer
– In a separate saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and sweetened condensed milk together, stirring occasionally.
– Once melted and smooth, add the chocolate chips. Stir constantly until the chocolate chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
– Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
