Thank you so much for sharing! I made them as a treat to give to my new neighbors. This was so easy and delicious. My new favorite!!! I’m wondering if anyone has revised the recipe to include fruit or nuts? Message me if so!

In reply to Carrie. Hi Carrie, Yes, you bake it the same amount of time. I'm warning you again, these are extremely addictive! Enjoy, Tracy

If I doubled it and used 9×13, do I still bake it for the same amount of time as the recipe?

In reply to Mae. Hi Mae, Depending on how hot and humid it is at the time, I would guess about 30 minutes to an hour before the caramel gets too soft. You could refrigerate them, remove them from the fridge about 20 minutes before serving. That should buy you 30 to 45 additional minutes at room temperature. Enjoy! Tracy

How long can I store them at room temperature? I live in Malaysia.

In reply to Kathleen. Hi Kathleen! Oh my, caramel from scratch? Can I come to your house and have some of your Carmelita's? It is going to take about 1 1/2 cups of caramel, it will really depend on how much you like caramel. I love caramel so I a little extra works for me. Enjoy, Tracy

Hello. I like to make caramel from scratch, how much would I need to replace those candies?

In reply to Coti. Hi Coti, Check your email, I just sent you a picture of the KRAFT Caramels I used to make my Carmelitas. Let me know if you have any other questions! Best, Tracy

They look amazing!
I live in a foreing country so I was wondering if you could upload or send me some pictures of the caramel squares you use for this recipe. This way I would know what to look for in the supermarket…

Thanks!!

In reply to Sidney. Hey Sidney, This recipe makes enough to fill a 9X13 pan. If you cut 4 across and 5 down you will end up with 20 large pieces. These are very rich so I cut mine smaller, 5 across and 6 down giving me 30 smaller pieces. It doesn't matter how I cut them I always end up eating too many! Have a great day, Tracy (the middle sister)

How many servings does this make?

In reply to shannon. Hi Shannon! Just replace the regular flour with gluten free flour and make sure your oatmeal is certified gluten free oatmeal. They taste just as good as the regular Carmelitas! Tracy (the middle sister)

any chance you could include the gluten free version of this as well?

In reply to erika. Ooops! What a silly mistake we made. But, it's done now, so we will try not to make that mistake in the future. Good thing bad grammar does not affect a good recipe. :)

Carmelita’s what? There shouldn’t be an apostrophe unless Carmelita is possessing something! the plural form is “Carmelitas.”

In reply to Robin.

Robin,

What a great idea, my daughter and I are going to try and cut down on our sugar. Nice to know that Carmelita’s can still be an option! Thanks for commenting – Tracy (the middle sister)

Thanks for the recipe!! Smucker’s makes a sugar free caramel ice cream topping that I bet you can use in place of the caramel squares.

In reply to Jocelyn. Aren't these yummy? And homemade caramel sauce? Can't get better than that!

Thank you for sharing this fantastic recipe. I made them to include in our Super Bowl spread tomorrow. Of note, I used homemade caramel sauce instead of the store bought caramels.

In reply to Shey. Then you are a good wife for doing him a favor of saving him from eating something he might not enjoy (although I can't really imagine anyone not liking these.)! Make some up today and eat his portion as your gift to him. Heehee!

In reply to Rebecca @ Dorm Room Baker. Glad they caught your eye, Rebecca. You gotta find a reason to make these, they are totally worth it.

Sounds amazing! And I totally understand–I try not to make anything too decadent or addicting unless I know I have someone else to pawn most of it off onto. Otherwise, I’m liable to eat myself into a sugar coma haha. I can see myself having that problem with these carmelitas!

Seriously they look so addictive …
