::Oatmeal Carmelitos::

This has to be, by far, my favorite treat. I adore caramel. These are so easy and always great for gatherings or work parties.

Ingredients::

Crust:
1 1/4 cup butter
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 cup flour
2 cup quick oats

Filling:
1/2 cup caramel ice cream topping (use the jar, not the squeeze bottle type)
3 tablespoons flour
1 cup chocolate chips

Directions::
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix crust ingredients and press into bottom of 13x9 inch pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Mix flour and caramel in small bowl and pour over crust in pan. Top with chocolate chips, then the rest of the crust mixture. Bake for 20 minutes.
