CARAMEL FILLED OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8 inch square metal pan with foil and spray foil with cooking spray or use non-stick foil. Combine caramels and cream in a small saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until caramels are melted, about 5 minutes. Let cool. Stir the oats, flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl or bowl of food processor. Blend in butter with a fork or your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. I used the food processor for this step, and so as not to chop the oats too much, added them *after* I'd incorporated the butter. Press half of crumbly mixture onto bottom of lined pan. Bake on center rack for about 20 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack 5 minutes. Sprinkle crust with chocolate chips; drizzle with caramel mixture. Top with remaining crumb mixture and toasted pecans. Bake until pale golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely in pan before cutting into squares. (12)
