Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Line 13x9-inch pan with foil, letting foil hang 2 inches over short ends of pan. Spray foil with cooking spray.
- In small bowl, mix caramel topping and 1 tablespoon of the cake mix; set aside. In large bowl beat remaining cake mix, butter and egg with electric mixer on low speed about 1 minute or just until crumbly. Stir in oats, using hands if necessary. Reserve 1 cup oat mixture. Using a piece of plastic wrap on crumb mixture, press remaining oat mixture in bottom of pan; remove plastic wrap. Bake 14 to 18 minutes or until light golden brown.
- Sprinkle chocolate chips and walnuts over hot crust. Drizzle caramel mixture evenly over chocolate chips and walnuts to within 1/2 inch of edges. Crumble reserved oat mixture over top.
- Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely, about 2 hours. Using foil to lift, remove bars from pan. Remove foil. For bars, cut into 6 rows by 4 rows. Store covered.

OATMEAL CARAMEL AND CHOCOLATE OVERLOAD BARS
This recipe is my own version of the Pillsbury Bake-Off winning recipe for Oatmeal Carmelitas. They are delicious at room temperature, chilled (for a firm, chewy treat), or warm with a scoop of ice cream. These bars are truly the ultimate in decadence!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees (325 degrees for glass or dark non-stick pan). Lightly grease 9x13 inch pan.
- 2. In large bowl, blend all crust/topping ingredients until crumbly. Press half of the crust mixture into pan. Carefully spread caramel onto crust with offset spatula.
- 3. If using more than one type of chocolate chip, empty chips into small bowl and mix together to combine (this step is not necessary, but does ensure an even distribution). Sprinkle chocolate chips over layer of caramel topping. Sprinkle optional chopped nuts over chocolate chips. Distribute remaining crust/topping over chocolate chips and optional pecans by pinching off portions and evenly distributing. It's okay if the filling shows through the topping in parts.
- 4. Bake 25-30 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool bars enough to put pan in refrigerator. Chill in refrigerator several hours or until caramel and chocolate layer is set. If filling is not firm enough before cutting, the bars will be messy to cut and may not retain their shape or look as attractive when served later. After caramel and chocolate layer is set, it is helpful let bars come closer to room temperature before cutting (when chilled, the cold caramel and chocolate can be difficult to cut). Enjoy!
