Dulce de Leche Carmelitas

In honor of Cindo de Mayo (aiy yai yaiii!) we made dulce de lecha carmelita's.  

I got this muy delicioso recipe from my blog friend Jessica and the dulce de leche was sent from mi amiga en Argentina (¡gracias Cintia!) and we just love everything about the combination :)  Mmmm.

Alright we're quite aware carmie's aren't really a Mexican thang, but they totally sound like it ;)  Wanna make a batch for your little nino's anyway?

2 c. quick oats

1 tsp. baking soda

1.5 c. brown sugar

1/2 tsp. salt

6 tbs. flour

*You can substitute with a caramel topping

Baking instructions:

1. Combine 2 c. flour, oats, brown sugar, soda, salt & butter.

2. Press half of crumb mixture into 9x13 pan.

3. Bake @ 350*F for 10 minutes.
