OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CARMELITAS



Oatmeal Chocolate Carmelitas image

These have been favorites in my house for as long as I can remember! They're sweet, gooey, and so delicious. They're similar to another recipe on Zaar, but were just different enough that I decided to post them anyway. We often double this and bake it in a jelly roll pan. Prep time does not include 1-2 hours to chill after baking.

Tina's Oatmeal Carmelitas (David's Version) image

WOW is all I can say about these wonderful bars. They are the kind of thing as soon as you taste it, you're going to finish the whole dish! I'm serious, every time we make these they don't last two days, and we make two batches at a time. I've posted this recipe exactly the way it was given to me, but I do like to add nuts to...

  • 3. Press 1/2 crumb mixture (about 3 cups) in bottom of baking dish. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. Set rest of crumb mixture aside.
  • 4. In a small bowl combine caramel topping, and 3 tablespoons of flour and blend well. Remove partially baked crust from the oven. Sprinkle with chocolate chips and pecans.

Tips for Making Oatmeal Carmelitas

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your carmelitas.
  • Don't overcook the oatmeal. It should be cooked until it is tender but still has a little bit of chew to it.
  • Let the carmelitas cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
  • Store the carmelitas in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze them for up to 2 months.

Oatmeal carmelitas are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and they can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give oatmeal carmelitas a try!
