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...

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!

OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CARMELITAS
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.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at a moderate temperature. This will help them bake evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help them set and firm up.
