Caramel Oatmeal Fudge Cookies

For fun, I decided to replace the peanut butter with a 14 oz bag of caramels. It was delicious! Follow the instructions above, omitting the peanut butter and using the caramels instead.

Just a note though. The caramel oatmeal fudge cookies took longer to cool. Although they were delicious, they sometimes could be a little sticky.

If you try either of these recipes, I’d love to hear how they turned out!
