Rolo stuffed Carmelitas have a sweet oat base filled with chocolate, caramel, and Rolos. These bars are a perfect addition to your party, easy to serve and easily made ahead these are perfect! Crunchy, creamy and sweet.
I have this sick obsession with chocolate and toffee or caramel. I can NOT get enough of it. Seriously, I think they are the best combined. Whether I am eating a Rolo, salted caramel hot chocolate or California brittle from see's candy I seriously cannot control myself.
The other day I was supposed to bring a dessert dish to a baby shower. It was 8 am Sunday morning and I needed to be at the party by 12 pm.
I have made many versions of these in the past but it had been about a year since I had laid my taste buds into these scrumptious bars. It was then I decided I would make carmelitas!
These bars are a huge hit. Everyone loves them. Everyone. I made a smaller portion but if you have a big party to go to feel free to double the recipe to make a 9 X 13 batch.
Whip these up in 15 minutes. Bake them for 25 minutes. Then, the hard part comes to let them cool so the delicious caramel can set!! Self-control people! Use it!! Then, when they are cool DEVOUR!!
