Pour caramel topping into a medium size bowl and stir in the 6 tablespoons of flour.
04Pull baking dish from the oven, sprinkle chocolate chips over the warm crust and pour thickened caramel evenly over the chocolate chips (you can use an offset spatula to help spread the caramel). Sprinkle the coarse salt over the caramel topping.
05Crumble the rest of the crust mixture evenly over the caramel topping. You can gently pat the crumbly crust, but do not press down. Bake for another 20 minutes.
06Let cool completely and then cut into bars. If you wish, you can sprinkle an additional tiny pinch of coarse salt on top of the crust before it cools completely.
