Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams milk chocolate chips
- 60 grams butterscotch chips
- 190 grams peanut butter
- 60 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 120 ml evaporated milk
- 200 grams marshmallow creme
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 250 grams salted peanuts
- 340 grams soft caramels
- 60 ml heavy cream
Instructions
Line a 9x13-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 200 grams of milk chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and 90 grams of peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth.
Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for 15 minutes or until set.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add granulated sugar and evaporated milk, stirring until dissolved.
Bring the mixture to a boil and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in marshmallow creme, 90 grams of peanut butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Spread the nougat layer over the chilled chocolate layer in the pan.
Sprinkle the salted peanuts evenly over the nougat layer, gently pressing them down.
In another saucepan, combine soft caramels and heavy cream. Cook over low heat, stirring until melted and smooth.
Pour the caramel mixture over the peanut layer, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to cool.
Melt the remaining milk chocolate chips (250 grams) and peanut butter (10 grams) together in the microwave using the same 30-second interval process as before.
Spread the chocolate mixture over the chilled caramel layer, smoothing it out with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pan for 1-2 hours, or until fully firm and set.
Lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into 24 rectangular bars with a sharp knife, cleaning the blade between cuts for neat edges.
Store the Sneaky Snickers Bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Let them come to room temperature before serving for the best texture.
