Snickers Bars

I found this recipe in one of those old church cookbooks, but I haven't made them in years. There is a note written on it stating that while they are a lot of work, it is well worth it because they are that good.

First Layer

1 cup milk chocolate chips
1/4 cup butterscotch chips
1/4 cup peanut butter

Melt together and spread in a buttered 9x13" pan. You might want to line the pan with parchment paper to make removal easier. Let cool and set.

Second Layer

1 cup sugar

1/4 cup butter

1/4 cup milk

1 cup marshmallow creme

1/4 cup peanut butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup (or more) chopped salted peanuts

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, boil the sugar, butter, and milk for 5 minutes. Add the marshmallow creme, peanut butter, and vanilla. Pour over the first layer. Sprinkle with the chopped peanuts. Let cool.

Third Layer

30-40 caramels

1-3 tablespoons hot water

Melt the caramels in a heavy-bottomed skillet, and add the hot water. Stir until well blended. Pour over the peanuts.

Fourth Layer

Repeat first layer, spreading over the caramel layer.

Allow to set and cut into small bars.
