Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1.25 cups creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter
- 1 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups evaporated milk
- 7 ounces marshmallow creme
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 11 ounces caramel candies
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1.5 cups salted peanuts
Directions
Step 1
Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper and lightly grease it. This will make it easier to remove the candy bars later.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips with 0.5 cup of creamy peanut butter in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish to form the base layer. Refrigerate for 20 minutes, or until set.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Stir in granulated sugar and evaporated milk until combined. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. Let it cook for 5 minutes at medium heat, then remove from heat.
Step 4
Stir in marshmallow creme, 0.5 cup of creamy peanut butter, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated. Immediately pour the nougat mixture over the chilled chocolate-peanut butter base. Smooth with a spatula and refrigerate until set (about 15-20 minutes).
Step 5
Place caramel candies and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the caramel is fully melted and smooth. Pour the caramel over the nougat layer and sprinkle evenly with salted peanuts.
Step 6
Melt the remaining 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 0.25 cup of creamy peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Spread this over the peanut-caramel layer to create the final chocolate topping. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Refrigerate the entire dish for at least 1 hour, or until all layers are firm. Once set, lift the bars out of the baking dish using the parchment paper and cut into individual candy bars.
Step 8
Store the Snickers Bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Serve chilled or at room temperature and enjoy!
