Found this gem on a package of walnuts. It's become a favourite here at our house. I cut them into bite size pieces just so I can have a few to savour and not feel any pangs of guilt. Ingredients:
2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, divided |
2 cups old fashioned oats |
1 cup brown sugar, lightly packed |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 cup butter, melted |
2 cups semisweet chocolate morsels |
1 1/2 cups walnuts, toasted and chopped |
1 cup caramel ice cream topping |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a large bowl combine 2 Cups flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda and salt Add butter, stir until moistened.
3. Reserve 1 Cup of crumb mixture for topping.
4. Press remaining mixture into the bottom of an ungreased 13 x 9 baking pan.
5. Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly brown.
6. Remove pan from oven, sprinkle with chocolate morsels and walnuts.
7. In a small bowl combine remaining 1/3 Cup flour and caramel topping.
8. Drizzle over crust.
9. Sprinkle evenly with reserved crumb mixture.
