Chocolate Caramel Oatmeal Bars image

These are to die for! Now that I've got nut allergies to deal with in my household, I make these without the nuts and with extra crumb mixture (1 1/2 times the crumb mix), but the nuts are really good to cut the sweetness. The recipe is originally from a land-o-lakes pamphlet. Part of prep time is cool time.

Time 2h37m

Yield 60 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup quick oats
1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
3/4 cup butter, softened
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1 (14 ounce) package caramels, unwrapped (48 caramels)
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
1 cup chopped pecans, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Combine all crumb ingredients in a large bowl, stopping after adding the salt. Beat at medium speed until mixture is crumbly (about 3 minutes). Reserve 1 cup of crumb mixture.
  • Press remaining crumb mixture into bottom of a 13x9 inch pan. Bake for 10 minutes.
  • Combine milk and caramels in a saucepan. Cook over medium low heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture is creamy.
  • Sprinkle partially baked crust with 1 cup chocolate chips and 1/2 cup chopped pecans.
  • Pour caramel mixture evenly over chips and nuts. Sprinkle evenly with reserved crumb mixture and pat lightly.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes or until caramel is bubbly around the edges.
  • Cool completely. Melt the remaining cup of chocolate chips and spread over the top. Sprinkle with remaining nuts and pat lightly.
  • When chocolate hardens, cut into bars.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover oats. I always have a bag of oats in my pantry, so I can make these bars whenever I want.
