Easter Egg Dulce De Leche Dream Bars

These gooey dream bars are kind of like a brownie that has bathed in Dulce de Leche sauce. I prefer all my desserts be topped with caramel {Which is done quick and easy here with condensed milk on top} and made with pastel pieces of crunch…. these dessert bars DREAM-Y.
