PAYDAY BARS

This was one of the recipes from my cooking magazine finds!  It was a HUGE hit with a small addition.

PAYDAY BARS
2 cups chopped roasted, salted peanuts
1/2 cup Heath bar toffee bits
14 ounces KRAFT caramel bits
1 cup mini marshmallows
1 tablespoon heavy cream

  • Prepare 8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper or foil.
  • Spray well with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Mix together the nuts and toffee bits.
  • Arrange half the nuts evenly in bottom of the pan.
  • Using a double boiler, melt caramels with heavy cream.
  • When caramel mixture is smooth add marshmallows and stir until smooth.
  • Immediately pour caramel mixture over nuts and top with remaining nut mixture.
  • Cool 2-3 hours until set before cutting.
  • Store in air tight container with wax paper between the layers.
