50 min | 20 min prep

32 bars

 

1 1/2 cups flour

1 1/2 cups oatmeal

1 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup butter, soft

1 (13 1/2 ounce) can nestle dulce de leche (if you can't find the nestle dulce de leche can I have substituted regular sweetened condensed milk)

1 cup toffee pieces

 

Preheat over to 350.

In a big bowl mix flour, oatmeal, brown sugar and salt. Cut in softened butter with pastry blender until crumbly.

Save out 1 cup of mixture, press rest in a 13x9 pan. Do not grease the pan. Bake 10 minutes.

Empty dulce de leche into microwave bowl. Heat dulce de leche in microwave on medium power until it is soft enough to spread. 2-4 minutes total- I microwave for 45 seconds, stir, then zap again on med power.

Spread dulce de leche over baked crust. Sprinkle toffee bits and the 1 cup of oats mixture over that. Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of pan to loosen. Cool completely another 30 minutes.

Makes 32 bars.
