Nutty Chocolate Caramel Bar

This is a recipe from Miss Sophie, used with her permission.

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Combine 2 cups flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Add butter; stir until all ingredients are moistened. Reserve 1 cup of the crumb mixture and set it aside. Press remaining mixture into the bottom of an ungreased 13X9 baking pan.

Bake at 350 F for 15 minutes or until lightly browned.

Remove from oven; sprinkle with chocolate morsels and walnuts.

Combine caramel topping and remaining 1/3 cup flour in a small bowl; drizzle over the crust. Sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture.

Bake at 350 F for 20-25 minutes more or until browned. Cool completely in pan before cutting into bars.
