    List of Ingredients




    2 cups sugar
    2/3 cup evaporated milk
    12 regular marshmallows
    1/2 cup butter
    6 ounces white chocolate, broken into pieces (see note)
    1 teaspoon cherry flavored oil or 1 ounce cherry extract
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    Red food coloring (optional)
    2 cups milk chocolate chips
    3/4 cup peanut butter
    1 1/4 cup crushed salted peanuts
    1 tablespoon butter

    Recipe



    Butter a 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan.

    In large saucepan combine sugar, milk, salt, marshmallows, and 1/2 cup butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat; boil for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

    Add white chocolate, cherry oil or extract, vanilla extract and red food coloring, mixing well. Pour into prepared pan. Set aside.

    In 4-cup measuring glass, melt chocolate chips in microwave oven for 1 minute, stirring after 30 seconds. (Be careful not to over heat, chocolate burns easily.) Stir in peanut butter, crushed peanuts and 1 tablespoon butter and mix well. Spread evenly over the cherry mixture.

    Chill until firm. Cut into 1-inch squares. Store in cool place.

    Note: If available, substitute cherry-flavored chips for the white chocolate chips and cherry flavorings.
