Homemade Snickers









** Recipe from From Glitter To Gumdrops **

* 1 bag of milk chocolate chips
* 1 bag of butterscotch chips (these definitely give it a butterscotch flavor, so if you don't like that taste, substitute for more chocolate)
* 14 oz. bag of caramels
* 1 c. sugar
* 7 oz. jar of marshamallow fluff (or make your own by melting 4 1/2 c. of mini marshmallows with 2 tsp. of light karo syrup)
* 1/4 c. butter
* 1/4 c. evaporated milk
* 1 c. peanut butter, divided
* 1/4 c. heavy whipping cream
* 1 t. vanilla
* 1 1/2 c. salted peanuts, chopped

There are four layers - the bottom, and top layer follow the same process.  Layer 1/Chocolate:  Melt 1 c. chocolate chips, 1/4 c. butterscotch chips, and 1/4 c. peanut butter in the microwave in 30 second intervals.  Stir between heating until smooth.  Pour into a greased 9x13" pan.  Put in fridge of freezer to harden.  Layer 2/Filling:  Melt butter in a sauce pan on med. heat. Add sugar and  evaporated milk.  Bring to a boil, and stir constantly for 5 min.  Remove from heat, and stir in 1 1/2  marshmallow cream, 1/4 c. peanut butter, vanilla, and peanuts.  Mix until smooth, spread over first layer.  Work quickly because this will start to melt the bottom layer of chocolate that was hardened in the fridge/freezer.  Layer 3/Caramel:  Melt caramels with whipping cream at 30 second intervals in the microwave.  Stir between heating; heat until smooth.  Pour over second filling layer.  Layer 4/Chocolate:  Repeat layer one instructions.  Cut into bars and keep in fridge.
