The Best Bar Cookies Recipe: Granny Mabel's Secret!

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups rolled oats
• 1.5 cups brown sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1.5 cups butter, melted
• 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 (12 ounce) jar caramel ice cream topping
• 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Instructions

1. Get all your ingredients ready. Then, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan to prevent sticking.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of flour, oats, brown sugar, salt, and baking soda. Add the melted butter and mix until well combined. Press half of this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
3. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 10 minutes, or until it's lightly toasted. Take it out of the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top. Let it sit for a moment.
4. In a smaller bowl, mix the caramel topping with 6 tablespoons of flour. Drizzle this mixture evenly over the melted chocolate chips. Sprinkle the remaining crust mixture evenly over the caramel layer, then gently press it down.
5. Return to the preheated oven and bake for another 15 minutes. Let the cookies cool completely before slicing into squares and serving.
