I got this recipe from my mom's old cookbook. I am sure it was something my grandma used to make. I will be making these for my Christmas baking trays.
Ingredients:
1 (14 ounce) package kraft caramels (about 48 caramels)
1/3 cup water
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup melted margarine
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 (6 ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions:
1. Heat caramels and water over low heat, stirring often until caramels are melted and mixture is smooth.
2. Preheat oven to 350°F.
3. Mix flour, oats, brown sugar, margarine, baking soda and salt. Reserve 1 cup for the topping. Press remaining ingredients into a ungreased 9x13-inch pan.
4. Bake 10 minutes.
5. Sprinkle chocolate chips over baked layer, drizzle with caramel mixture.
6. Sprinkle remaining reserved mixture on top. Bake until lightly brown about 15 minutes.
7. Cool slightly; cut into 2x1-inch bars.
