    M&M/Mars Snickers Bar

    List of Ingredients




    1/4 cup light corn syrup
    2 tablespoons butter
    1 tablespoon vanilla extract
    1/8 cup peanut butter
    1 dash salt
    3 cups powdered sugar
    35 unwrapped Kraft caramels
    1 cup dry-roasted unsalted peanuts
    1 bag milk-chocolate chips -- (12-ounce)

    With the mixer on high speed, combine the corn syrup, butter, vanilla,
    peanut butter, and salt until creamy. Slowly add the powdered sugar.
    When the mixture has the consistency of dough, remove it from the bowl
    with your hands and press it into a lightly greased 9x9-inch pan. Set in
    the refrigerator. Melt the caramels in a small pan over low heat.
    When the caramel is soft, mix in the peanuts.

    Pour the mixture over the refrigerated nougat in the pan. let this cool in the
    refrigerator. When the refrigerated mixture is firm, melt the chocolate over low
    heat in a double boiler or in a microwave oven set on high for 2 minutes.
    Stir halfway through cooking time. When the mixture in the pan has hardened, cut
    it into 2x1-inch sections. Set each chunk onto a fork and dip into the melted
    chocolate. Tap the fork against the side of the bowl or pan to knock off any excess
    chocolate.

    Then place the chunks on waxed paper to cool at room temperature (less than 70
    degrees F). This could take several hours, but the bars will set best this way. You
    can speed up the process by placing the bars in the refrigerator for 30
    minutes. Makes about 2 dozen bars.
