Oatmeal Carmelita Bars

Kaleena Jensen

1 14 oz pkg Caramels

1/2 Cup Evaporated Milk

2 Cup Flour

2 Cup Quick Oats

1 1/2 Cup Packed Brown Sugar

1 tsp Baking Soda

1/2 tsp salt

1 Cup Butter Melted

2 Cup Choc Chips (I just sprinkle till looks like enough, depending on how chocolaty you want)

1 Cup chopped Walnuts (I  leave these out because too many people I know are allergic)

Preheat oven to 350, grease 9x13 pan.  Over med heat melt unwrapped caramels with evaporated milk, stirring until smooth, (I leave it on low while I prepare the rest and then watch it cause it burns quickly). In medium bowl stir flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda and salt.  Stir in melted butter and press half the mixture into bottom of greased pan, bake for 10 minutes.  Remove and sprinkle choc chips, walnuts and drizzle caramel mixture over all.  Crumble remaining oat mixture even over top and pat down lightly, bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden.
