- Preheat your Air Fryer to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a mixing bowl, beat 1¾ sticks of butter and the powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
- Gradually mix in the cocoa powder and flour until well combined.
- Press the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish and bake for 15 minutes.
- While the crust bakes, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter with the sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture thickens, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Pour this mixture over the baked crust and return to the Air Fryer for an additional 8-10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toast the nuts lightly, then chop them coarsely. Set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the caramel chips with the heavy cream, stirring until smooth. Fold the toasted nuts and salt into the caramel mixture.
- Spread the nutty caramel layer over the bars and allow them to cool completely before slicing.
- These Chewy Nutty Squirrel Bars are not just a treat for humans but symbolize a sweet connection to the wildlife that inspires joy and wonder in our lives. Enjoy crafting these delicious bars and perhaps share a moment of appreciation for the squirrels and the natural world around us.
