03 - Throw in the egg and vanilla, and mix until everything's blended well.
04 - In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
05 - Slowly add your dry mix to the wet mix, stirring just enough to combine. Push the dough flat into your lined baking dish.
06 - Sprinkle chocolate chips all over and gently push them into the dough.
07 - Pour your caramel sauce all over the chocolate chips.
08 - Scatter sea salt flakes on everything.
09 - Bake for 25-30 minutes until the edges turn golden and the middle feels firm. Let it cool all the way before you cut into squares.
