Okay, I've already given you the recipes for the oh-so-scrumptious Peanut Butter Bars and the Chocolate Coconut Dream Bars. Now it's time for the final recipe of the bars we served at my brother's graduation party! Though my little sister decided that her favorite ones were definitely the Peanut Butter bars, these Chocolate Caramel Oat bars were MY favorite. Let's see what you choose. :)
Drum roll please...
Ingredients
1 1/2 c. brown sugar
2 c. flour
2 c. old fashioned rolled oats
2 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 c. butter, melted
2 c. chocolate chips
64 caramels, unwrapped
1 c. heavy cream
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine brown sugar, flour, oats, and baking soda in a large bowl.
Pour melted butter over the mixture and mix until well combined and crumbly.
Press half of the mixture in an ungreased 9x13 inch pan.
Place pan in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
While the crust is baking, pour the cream over the caramels in a microwave-safe bowl.
Melt in the microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth and creamy.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the baked crust.
Pour the caramel evenly over the chocolate chips.
Crumble the remaining oat mixture over the caramel.
Bake another 15-20 minutes or until edges are slightly golden.
Let cool completely before cutting.
Store and serve at room temperature.

(Sometimes you may have to use your hands to combine it all well enough. Just sayin'...)
Press half of the mixture in an ungreased 9x13 inch pan.

Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the baked crust.
Pour the caramel evenly over the chocolate chips.
Crumble the remaining oat mixture over the caramel.
(You can just sprinkle it over the bars. However, I like "oat chunks" on my bars, so I usually grab a handful of the mixture, give it a good squeeze, then sprinkle it over the top.)
Bake another 15-20 minutes or until edges are slightly golden.
Let cool completely before cutting.
Store and serve at room temperature.
