Rapture Bars (aka Oatmeal Carmelitas)

Ingredients:

2 C All-purpose flour
1 t Baking soda
2 C Quick-cooking oats
1 1/2 C Packed brown sugar
1 1/2 C Melted butter or coconut oil
1/2 t Salt
12 oz Semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 C Chopped walnuts
1 1/2 C Caramel sauce (either melted down from indivually wrapped caramels or use ice cream topping mixed with 3 T flour)
Optimal: Add a little extra salt to the caramel sauce, to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

Grease a 9x13 casserole dish. 

Combine the flour, baking soda, oats, brown sugar, butter, and salt. 

Once well combined, press half of the mixture down into the casserole dish. 

Bake for 15 minutes. 

Let cool slightly. 

Sprinkle nuts and chocolate chips over crust. 

Drizzle caramel sauce over chocolate chips and nuts. (If you like that sweet vs salty flavor add a little sea salt to the caramel!)

Crumble remaining mixture and sprinkle over caramel sauce. 

Return to oven and bake an additional 20 minutes. 

Let cool completely before cutting.
