Caramel Bars

Kraft caramels were 50% off at Target after halloween (woohoo)! It gave me a great excuse to make these lovelies....plus we have a category for oatmeal. Whenever I take a pan of this ewey gooey goodness anywhere, it's a success.

Crust:
3/4 cup melted butter
1 cup flour
1 cup oatmeal
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp baking soda

Yummy stuff:
Caramels (32/package)
3T butter
3T whipping cream
Milk choc. chips

Make crust. Take 2/3 of mixtures, press in cake pan. Bake 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Melt caramels, butter, whipping cream in pan. Pour over crust. Top with rest of crust and chocolate chips. Bake 15 min at 350.

*someday I will get a picture up.

I came across a recipe similar to this a while ago but haven't tried it... mostly for fear that I'll do some serious damage to my thighs. Now I have to try it. Thanks, Em. :p

I'm so glad the "oatmeal" category is useful to someone else other than me. :) Looks tasty.
