Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 10 ounces Mini marshmallows
- 0.5 cups Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups Powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 12 ounces Caramel candies
- 3 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 2 cups Salted dry roasted peanuts
Instructions
Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing the edges to hang over for easy removal.
In a large saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the mini marshmallows and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth.
Reduce heat to low and gently stir in the sweetened condensed milk. Gradually add the powdered sugar, stirring until a thick nougat mixture forms. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Transfer the nougat mixture to the lined baking dish and spread evenly with a spatula. Let it cool and firm up for about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a microwave-safe bowl, combine the caramel candies and heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until the caramel is melted and smooth.
Pour the melted caramel evenly over the cooled nougat layer in the baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it out if needed.
Sprinkle the salted dry roasted peanuts over the caramel, pressing them gently to ensure they adhere. Place the dish in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
Once chilled, lift the salted nut roll out of the dish using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into 12 bars using a sharp knife.
Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
