Week 12: Sweet & Salty - Salted Caramel Bailey's Milkshakes [Baking]

Intro from Baking Challenge: Mmmmm salty sweet... Such a good flavor combination! Salt bring a whole other layer of deliciousness to your baking and there's quite a few different ways to add it! You can add pretzels, a variety of nuts, chips, cheese, or even just salt like in these margarita cookies! Or for the pork obsessed there's always bacon! Another fun way to add salt to your creations is to try your hand at a homemade salted caramel sauce. A popular salty sweet dessert is the chubby hubby bar. If you want to go the other way and sweeten up some savory dishes, you can use corn, onion or some fig jam on blue cheese crackers.

So. Delicious.  I might have gone a little heavy on the salt, but I'm a glutton for salt and caramel.
