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...

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 12

CRUST
2 c all purpose flour
2 c quick cooking oats
1 1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/4 c butter, softened
FILLING
1 jar(s) (12.5 oz) caramel ice cream topping
3 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 pkg (6 oz) semisweet chocolate chips
1 pkg chopped pecans small package 6 oz

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • 2. In a large bowl, combine all crust ingredients. Mix until crumbly.
  • 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.
  • 5. Drizzle the caramel mixture evenly over the chocolate chips and pecans. Sprinkle with the remaining crumb mixture.
  • 6. Return to oven and bake an additional 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 1 hour or until room temperature. Cut into bars and serve! Bon Appetite! The recipe that I was given says to refrigerate the bars after they are room temperature. If you do this they will be very hard and chewy. I don't agree with this!

These oatmeal carmelitas were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I didn't like these oatmeal carmelitas at all. They were too sweet and the texture was off.

These oatmeal carmelitas were a bit dry. I think I would add more butter next time.

I had a hard time getting the caramel to set. I think I might have cooked it for too long. Other than that, the oatmeal carmelitas were delicious.
