Gooey Caramelitas! O M G...can we just say O M G? These ooey, gooey delicious bars are loaded with chocolate chips, oats and 2 kinds of caramel layered with an oatmeal cookie crust! Heavenly and so delish!
I guess I didn't realize how much I would like these, because I've never made them until now! Big mistake! These are so good, I've been missing out and these are super addictive, so they are dangerous as well!
These bars have everything I love in them! Total drool-worthy!
If you like to pin a lot of desserts or looking for dessert recipes, check out my boards on Pinterest. I'm loaded with dessert love! 🙂
Being on Pinterest, I get inspired by others baking their goodies and in turn, it makes me want to bake it too. Whatever I see...I want to make. Can you blame me? Or are you just the person on the other end waiting to get the baked goodies? 🙂 I'm in it for both ends!
