Ingredients
- 2 cups, plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 3/4 sticks unsalted butter, chilled and cut into cubes
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9 by 13-inch baking pan with foil; lightly butter the foil or spray with cooking spray.
- For the crust: Combine the flour, sugar, salt, and butter in the bowl of a food processor; process 20 to 30 seconds or until butter is in small pieces. Press crust into pan in an even layer; refrigerate for 30 minutes. Bake until evenly browned, about 25 minutes.
- For the filling: Combine cashews, sesame seeds, salt, and heavy cream in a bowl. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; stir in the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and honey. Cook, whisking constantly, until the sugar is dissolved; cook until caramel starts to thicken and forms large bubbles, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in cashew mixture.
- Pour caramel on top of crust. Bake until caramel bubbles along the edges of pan (but still liquid in the center), 25 to 28 minutes. Transfer bars to a wire rack to cool completely; use foil overhang to lift out of pan. Cut into 1 1/2-inch squares.
