Caramel Bars

I got this recipe from my friend Becca's blog, and these are divine! I hope you enjoy them as a quick holiday treat for one of your holiday get-togethers this season.

3/4 c. butter (no subs)
1 c. flour
1 c. oatmeal
3/4 c. brown sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

Mix together and pat 3/4 of mixture into 9X13 pan. Bake for 9 minutes in a 350 preheated oven.

In microwave, while stirring frequently melt the following ingredients until smooth:
32 unwrapped square caramels
3 T milk
3 T butter

Pour caramel sauce over baked crust. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 c chocolate chips and crumble remaining crust mixture over the top. Bake for 15 minutes longer at 350.
Do not overcook! Remove from oven and let cool, once cool cut into bars.
