Caramel Wonder Bars

• 1-1/2 cup Quick Oats
• 1-1/2 cup Flour
• 1-1/4 cup Brown Sugar
• 3/4 teaspoons Baking Soda
• 1/4 teaspoons Salt
• 3/4 cups Butter, Melted
• 1 package Caramels, Unwrapped (40-50 If You Buy Bulk)
• 1/2 cups Whipping Cream
• 1 package Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips (1 1/2 - 2 Cups If Bulk)

1. In a large bowl stir together the first five ingredients (oats through salt on the above list). Next, stir in the melted butter. I use a fork to cut the mixture together until crumbly. Set aside 1 cup of the oat mixture for later.
2. Press the remaining oat mixture into a 13x9x2 pan (which has been greased or sprayed). Bake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes, until light brown.
3. In the meantime, combine caramels and cream in a microwave safe bowl. Melt the two together, stirring often. (Start with 2 minutes, then stir and continue in 1 minute intervals until melted).
4. When cookie/crust is finished baking, sprinkle the chocolate chips over the hot crust. Top with caramel mixture and use a spatula to spread it out. Sprinkle reserved oat mixture evenly over the top. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until top is golden brown.
5. Serve and enjoy! And while you are at it...thank your lucky stars this recipe isn't a sin to enjoy!
