I found this recipe at www.yourhomebasedmom.com. I've become addicted to these bars and have been making them at least once a week. I did tweak the recipe just a little and use 1/2 c of the crumb mixture for the topping instead of 1/4 c. I think they look better that way. You can use homemade Dulce de Leche or store bought. Fortunately, the store I shop at carries it. You will usually find it next to the sweetened condensed milk in the baking aisle

How To Make dulce de leche bars

  • 1
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2
    In a bowl combine the flour, oats, sugar and salt.

  • 6
    Spread the Dulce de Leche over the top of the crust with a spatula. Spread gently, so that none of the crust comes up.
