Homemade Twix Bars

I made these last night for a potluck that Mike has at work.  They were easier and better tasting than the Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars that I made a week or so ago.

 - I used Tollhouse milk chocolate chips for the topping and ended up using some heavy cream to thin them out a bit, maybe 5-6 Tbsp.  I didn't use shortening as the recipe suggests.  The heavy cream worked well with the Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars so I thought it would work here as well.  The Tollhouse chips aren't as high quality as the Ghiradelli so they started to break down, with the oil rising to the top once I spread the chocolate over the top of the caramel.  I just wiped up some of that with a paper towel.  It didn't impact the taste, they just didn't have a perfectly smooth top.
