Caramel Eddies

My sister-in-law brought this dessert to our family reunion and like most desserts that she makes, it was awesome. Thanks Sarah!

2 cups flour
1 16 oz. jar caramel ice cream topping
2 cups rolled oats
2 cups chocolate chips
1 ½ cups brown sugar
6 Tbsp. flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 ½ cups butter or margarine (melted)

Preheat oven to 350. Combine 2 cups flour, oats, brown sugar, butter, soda, and salt. Press ½ of this into 9 X 13 pan. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with 2 cups chocolate chips. Mix the caramel and 6 Tbsp. flour and drizzle this over chocolate chips. Sprinkle remaining crumbs over caramel topping. Bake @ 350 for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown. Chill bars for easy cutting.
