Dessert: Oatmeal Carmelitas

Crust/Topping: 1 and 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 and 1/3 cups quick-cooking oatmeal
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Pinch of salt
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup butter, softened Filling:
1 cup caramel syrup
1/4 cup flour
1/3 cup pecans, chopped
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips Combine all crust ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. Place half of the mixture in the bottom of a greased 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Press evenly along bottom of pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, combine caramel, flour, pecans and chocolate chips and mix. Remove crust from oven and pour caramel mixture over crust and spread evenly. Sprinkle remaining crust mixture over the top and bake for about 20 minutes more at 350 degrees. Allow to cool and refrigerate for several hour before cutting into squares and serving. The Skinny: Use your favorite sugar substitute, fat-free caramel syrup and fat-free or low fat chocolate chips.
