Ingredients
  

For Chocolate Layer:

  • 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 3 tbsp Creamy Peanut Butter

For Nougat Layer:

  • 198 g Fluff Marshmallow
  • ¼ cup Creamy Peanut Butter
  • cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 cup Dry Roasted Unsalted Peanuts

For Caramel Layer:

  • 312 g Caramels Unwrapped
  • 60 g Heavy Cream

For Chocolate Layer:

  • 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 3 tbsp Creamy Peanut Butter

Instructions
 

For Chocolate Layer:

  • Line the bottom of an 11-inch by 7-inch baking pan with parchment paper or wax paper. 
  • In a small bowl, combine 1 cup chocolate chips and 3 tablespoons peanut butter. Microwave for 60 seconds at full power and stir to combine. Microwave a few more seconds if needed, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
  • Pour chocolate mixture into prepared pan and spread evenly. Freeze until the chocolate is hard, about 2 to 3 minutes.

For Nougat Layer:

  • In a medium sized bowl, combine marshmallow fluff, ¼ cup peanut butter, and 1 ½ cups powdered sugar. Using a wooden spoon or strong spatula, stir until a soft nougat dough ball forms. 
  • Remove nougat dough from the bowl and press on top of hardened chocolate layer. Sprinkle 1 cup peanuts on top of nougat and gently press them down.

For Caramel Layer:

  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine caramels and ¼ cup heavy cream. Stir constantly until caramels have melted and cream is incorporated. 
  • Pour immediately over the peanut layer, using the back of a spoon to spread evenly. Refrigerate until caramel has set, about 5 minutes.

For Chocolate Layer:

  • In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 cup chocolate chips and 3 tablespoons peanut butter. Microwave for 60 seconds at full power and stir to combine. Microwave a few more seconds if needed, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
  • Pour chocolate mixture over caramel layer and spread evenly. Refrigerate until chocolate layer has hardened, about 10 minutes. Using a sharp knife, cut into 12 bars and serve.
