    Recipe



    TO PREPARE THE CRUST:
    In a microwave or double boiler, melt chocolate and 1 tablespoon butter. Spread onto the bottom and sides of crust; refrigerate until the chocolate is set.

    TO PREPARE THE PEANUT LAYER:
    In a saucepan over low heat, melt 20 caramels and 1/3 cup cream, stirring frequently until smooth. Remove from the heat; stir in peanuts. Spoon into pie shell; refrigerate.

    TO PREPARE THE CHOCOLATE LAYER:
    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 8 squares chocolate and 2 tablespoons butter. Remove from the heat; let stand 15 minutes.

    Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, beat 1 cup cream and vanilla until soft peaks form. Carefully fold a third of the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture; fold in the remaining whipped cream.

    Spread over peanut layer; refrigerate until set. Garnish with whipped cream and peanuts, if desired.

    TO PREPARE THE TOPPING:
    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the remaining 3 caramels, the remaining 5 teaspoons cream, and the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Drizzle over pie. Refrigerate until serving.

    If desired, top each serving with whipped cream and garnish with salted peanuts.

    Servings: 8
