Heaven in a 11 x 15 or Chocolate Drop Cookie Bars or Chocolate Oatmeal Bars

I originally received this recipe from a friend of a friend... however, when I went to the blogpage to find the recipe again, it had mysteriously disappeared.

While disappointed about the disappearance, I was thrilled to find something very similar at Cooks.com. AND even better, I think that the following recipe may actually be BETTER than the original friend of a friend's recipe.

Chocolate Layer
1 c. chocolate chips
1 c. butterscotch chips
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. butter

Cookie Layers
1 c. nuts
1 c. butter
2 c. brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. soda
3 c. oatmeal

Chocolate layer - on low heat, melt chips, milk, salt, butter.  Add nuts and set aside.
Cookie layer -
Cream butter and brown sugar.
Add eggs and vanilla and beat well.
Add flour, salt and soda.
Beat well and add oatmeal.
Spread 3/4 of batter in a 10 x 15 inch pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray or greased.
Spread chocolate mixture over cookie layer.
Drop remaining batter by teaspoonfuls on top.
Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 30 minutes (high altitude), or 30-45 minutes at sea level on a humid day.
