Browned Butter Cashew Bars

Cashew Bars 9
My favorite…browned butter. There is something extra decadent and delicious about browned butter so I knew before trying these cashew bars that they were going to be good. I tried a browned butter recipe for the first time about a year ago. I can’t believe how long I was missing out!
Each layer of these bars was equally yummy. The shortbread crust had little bits of browned butter baked into it, the rich caramel poured on top and the salty cashews were a nice crunch and compliment to the caramel.

Our crust turned out kind of crumbly, you can tell in the picture. They were a little bit messy to eat…I think we undercooked the crust just a smidge. I can’t wait to try this recipe again, I know that next time they will be absolutely perfect!
