Decadent brownies topped with candy bars - a mouthwatering treat!
Ingredients:
  • 3/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine
  • 1 cup marshmallow creme
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups dry-roasted peanuts
  • 40 caramels, unwrapped
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup butterscotch-flavored chips
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (or 325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Line a 13x9-inch pan with foil, leaving a 1-inch overhang on two opposite sides. Give the foil a quick spray with cooking spray.
  • Microwave a mixture of 3/4 cup of butter, 2 tablespoons of water, and 2/3 cup of sugar in a large microwavable bowl on High for about 1 minute until it just starts to boil. Stir until blended. Add and stir in 1 cup of chocolate chips until melted. Then mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla, eggs, flour, and baking powder. Spread the batter evenly in a pan.
  • Bake for 18 to 23 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
  • In a 2-quart saucepan, bring sugar, butter, and milk to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Let it boil for 5 minutes while stirring. Add marshmallow creme, peanut butter, and vanilla. Pour the mixture over brownies and sprinkle with peanuts.
  • In a 1-quart saucepan, melt caramels with 1/4 cup water over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until smooth; pour over peanuts.
  • In a medium microwave-safe bowl, microwave 1 cup of chocolate chips and butterscotch chips uncovered on High for about 1 minute until softened. Stir until smooth, then mix in the remaining 1/4 cup of peanut butter. Spread this mixture over the caramel layer. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before cutting. Use foil to easily lift the brownies from the pan for cutting. Cut into 8 rows by 6 rows and store in the refrigerator.
