TO DIE for Chocolate Caramel Bars

WARNING!! WARNING!! These are so amazing and delicious that you will probably eat the entire batch unless you share with family and friends!!! Just wanted to warn you bc I don't want to be at fault when you cant control yourself! lol  I have this problem and often times just go with it bc why not?! I work out, I deserve a pan full of heavenly goodness. I'm sure a few crunches will burn the entire batch off, right?? My mom and sis in law both make this, one with and one without nuts for those allergic family members (my HUBBY). Both are equally as yummy. Here's the one with nuts:

Ingredients:

• 1 3/4 flour
• 1 c quick oats
• 1/2 C brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 C Cold butter
• 1 C chopped walnuts
• 2o caramels
• 1 14oz can eagle brand sweetened condensed milk
• 2 C chocolate chips (or more if you love the heavenly morsel)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven 375*
2. Mix in large bowl: flour, oats, baking soda, & salt (*this is crumb mix)
3. Cut in butter until crumbly
4. Save 1 1/2 C of crumb mix and press rest into 13x9" pan and bake for 15 mins.
5. Add walnuts to saved crumb mix
6. In saucepan on low heat: melt caramel with milk
7. Layer chocolate chips, caramel mix, then crumb mix onto pressed mix and bake for 20 minutes.

That's it! That's all it takes to make a piece of Heaven! Enjoy!!!!
