Recipe For The BEST Cookies

You Will EVER Eat

This delicious cookie recipe is from the very little (heart shaped) cookbook titled The Bear Facts Recommends. It was published by a small company back in the 1980's. I am sure it is no longer in print.

They called the cookies simply

CARMEL BARS

The Ingredients are

• 2 cups flour
• 2 cups quick rolled oats
• 1.5 cups brown sugar
• 1tsp. baking soda
• 1tsp. salt
• 1.5 cups melted butter
• 1 14 ounce pkg Kraft Caramels
• 1 cup evaporated milk
• 2 cups chocolate chips
• 1 cup walnuts, chopped or dry roasted peanuts.

 I always use real butter not margarine, & I prefer the walnuts, but that is up to your taste.

Mix  flour, oats,  brown sugar, soda, salt and butter. Press 1/2 to 3/4 of mixture into a 11" x 16" jelly roll pan. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 5 minutes. Melt caramels with evaporated milk in double boiler. Sprinkle chocolate chips and nuts over cooked crust. Spread caramel mixture over chips & nuts. Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture on the top. Bake 15- 20 minutes at 350 degrees until golden brown. These will be a big hit with everybody - they taste like a candy bar!

Recipe makes 3- 4 dozen cookies. After cooling I like to use the smaller sized spatulas, either one made by pampered chef, or a similar one to remove cookies from pan. Serve on a pretty cookie plate, or pedestal cake plate.

These cookies are wonderful anytime, but I particularly like them in the fall. I think the carmels make me think of carmel apples which remind me of fall.

They would of course be the hit at a Christmas Cookie Exchange, too!
