Not having chocolate always causes a recipe to start at a bit of a disadvantage, at least for my taste buds. This dessert goes together quite easily and makes plenty to share at a potluck dinner, assuming you have a small family such as ours. There was so much, I took the Oat Squares to work to get some help cleaning up the dessert and to gather a few more ratings.
My boss (Deb) was the only one to actually write me a note giving her rating and I would agree with her whole-heartedly. We decided there was a bit too much caramel goo, and although our bookkeeper (Amy) agreed, she stated she would still have a go at eating the whole pan, goo and all. We all loved the crust. It is great texture combination with the apples and caramel. This recipe was given a four star rating losing one star because of the gooyness. I plan to try this recipe again and use the caramel mixture from Mom's caramel bars, or I may possibly just try making half the caramel mixture to see how that tastes. Watch for future posting on a revamp of this recipe.
I just realized as I looked over the recipe that I used all the caramels in a bag of Kraft caramels. Oops. I might need to make this again sooner than I thought.
