Now i'm just going to start this off letting you know this recipe is easy, but it will take most of your day to finish the bars. The outcome though is totally worth it. They taste exactly like a regular snickers. And you don't feel as bad for eating a couple of these bars because they aren't as big, but they are filling!
Bottom Chocolate Layer:
1 1/4 cups milk chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter
Thoroughly grease your baking pan (9 x 13). Melt ingredients together in a saucepan (or microwave) then pour into the baking dish and spread until even. Let cool and harden completely.
Nougat Layer:
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups marshmallow fluff
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cups salted peanuts, chopped
1 t vanilla extract
Melt the 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 later. Let cool completely.
Caramel Layer:
1 14oz bag of caramels
1/4 cup whipping cream
Combine ingredients in saucepan over low heat. Let melt, stirring occasionally until smooth - this took about 10 minutes. Pour over nougat layer and let cool completely.
Top Chocolate Layer:
1 1/4 cups milk chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter.
Melt ingredients in saucepan (or microwave), then pour over caramel and spread until even. Let cool and harden completely.
Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving, then cut as desired. These can stay at room temp, but they do get gooey. I like them refrigerated, but let them sit on the counter for at least 5-10 minutes before biting into them because they do get pretty hard in the fridge.
