Ceezie's Note:

This recipe came from Mrs. Jaca. She made them for my neice's tea party. So yummy and then to find out they were easy to make was just kind of a bonus. She said the recipe came from a kids cookbook.

Yield: 18 bars

• 18 ½ ounces white cake mix
• 2 cups uncooked oats
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 1 cup oil
• 1 egg
• ¾ cup caramel ice cream topping

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix the cake mix, oats and brown sugar in a bowl. Carefully stir in the oil and egg. Stir until everything is mixed together.
3. With your hands pat down half the dough into a well greased 9x13 inch baking dish. The dough will be gooey.
4. With the back of a spoon spread teh ice cream topping over the dough. Now crumble the rest of the dough on top.
