Instructions: Preliminaries: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 15-by-10-by-3/4-inch jelly-roll pan with butter or margarine.

1. In a large bowl, combine all base ingredients except margarine; mix well. Using a pastry blender or fork, cut in butter until crumbly. Press evenly in bottom of prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven for 8-14 minutes or until golden brown. (Or place all ingredients in a food processor fitted with the metal blade and pulse until butter is cut into small bits and mixture is the consistency of coarse meal).

2. Sprinkle peanuts and chocolate chips over warm base. In a small bowl, combine caramel topping and flour; blend well. Drizzle over chocolate and peanuts.

3. Bake an additional 12-18 minutes or until topping is set and golden. Cool 1 hour or until completely cooled. Cut into bars.

Storage: Store at room temperature up to one week.

Yield: 48 bars
