These are like crack, incredibly easy and very addicting!!!!
The do take some time to make, but are so worth it! I think I gained 3 lbs alone just by making these!
There are two ways you can do the chocolate layer, normal like the recipe shows or you can use the little bowl of Baker's Dipping Chocolate. I use that a lot as you will see!
So step one
makes one 9×13 pan
bottom chocolate layer
1 1/4 cups milk chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter
Thoroughly grease you baking pan. Melt ingredients together in a saucepan or microwave, then pour into the baking dish and spread until even. Let cool and harden completely.
I stuck it in the freezer while prepping the next layer. It was done in about 5-10 minutes
This part is the most time consuming, but some of the best stuff. After I finished pouring I went to put the pot in the sink and realized I left a spoonfull of the yummy stuff there just as I turned the water on to soak. For a brief moment I wanted to grab it back out of there!! lol
nougat layer
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups marshmallow fluff
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cup salted peanuts chopped, roughly chopped
1 tsp vanilla extract
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add in sugar and milk, stirring until dissolved and bring to a boil. Let cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add in fluff, peanut butter and vanilla, stirring until smooth. Turn off heat and fold in peanuts, then pour over bottom chocolate layer. Let cool completely.
And back to freezer.
**Side note, another time I made this I used 2 cups mini marshmallows and 1TBSP of light cornsyrup as I was out of fluff. It still worked but it didn't quite taste the same. So it is possible.
caramel layer
1 14-ounce bag of caramels
1/4 cup whipping cream
Combine ingredients in a saucepan over low heat. Let melt, stirring occasionally, until smooth – this took about 10 minutes for me. Pour over nougat layer and let cool completely.
And back to freezer, at this point I left it about 10-15 minutes to make sure everything was hardened and set.
Defiinitely the most tedious of layers as unwrapping all those damn caramels...They used to sell the bits you could buy to skip this part. But I dunno if they quit selling them all together or just here in my area.
Top chocolate layer
1 1/4 cups milk chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter
Melt ingredients together in a saucepan or microwave, then pour over caramel and spread until even. Let cool and harden completely.
back to freezer as the kiddos couldn't wait to eat them!
Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving, then cut as desired. These can stay at room temperature, but they do get gooey. I like them refrigerated best!
