Oatmeal Carmelita Bars

I got this yummy recipe from  my sister in law. They were a big hit at my party last night.

Ingredients:
1 C. flour
1 C. quick oats
3/4 C. brown sugar (packed)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. soda
3/4 C. melted butter
1 C. chocolate chips (I used white chocolate)
Caramel (Ice cream topping) or homemade caramel or butterscotch chips

In a large mixing bowl combine flour, oats, brown sugar, soda, salt, and melted butter.

Blend well to form crumbs. Press half of mixture in a 9X13 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with chocolate chips & pour caramel or sprinkle with butterscotch chips. Then spread the rest of the crumb mixture over top. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Cool before cutting.
