Yummy candy bar cookies made with caramels! These will go fast at any family gathering.

Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup quick-cooking oats
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup butter
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • 1 (14 ounce) package individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped
  • ½ (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
  • ½ cup chopped macadamia nuts
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. 2. Combine flour, oats, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  3. 3. Beat butter in a bowl using an electric mixer for 30 seconds. Add sugar and beat until fluffy. Beat in the oat mixture until crumbly; do not overmix. Reserve 1 cup of the crust mixture and press the rest into the bottom of a 9x13-inch rimmed baking pan.
  4. 4. Bake in the preheated oven until firm and browned, about 10 minutes. Leave oven on; remove crust and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  5. 5. Combine caramels and evaporated milk in a saucepan over low heat. Cook and stir until caramels melt and mixture is smooth, about 5 minutes. Spread over the prebaked cookie crust; sprinkle reserved crust mixture, nuts, and butterscotch chips on top.
  6. 6. Bake in the hot oven until golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack. Cut into bars.
