I found this Chocolate Chip Cookie Squares with Oats & Caramel Recipe on the Pillsbury website, it was actually a Bake Off Contest recipe. I made it for a recent pot luck gathering and it was a huge hit. The mixture of Chocolate Chips, Oats, and Caramel is genius! Using Pillsbury refrigerated chocolate chip cookies makes this recipe super simple.
