Homemade Milky Way Bars Treat
🛒 What You’ll Need
- 1 ½ cups Caramel sauce (thick is best!) 🍯
- 1 cup Milk chocolate chips 🍫
- ½ cup Creamy peanut butter 🥜
- For the “Nougat” Base: * 2 cups Marshmallow fluff or melted marshmallows ☁️
- ¼ cup Creamy peanut butter 🥜
👩🍳 Instructions
- The Base: In a medium bowl, fold together your marshmallow fluff and the small portion of peanut butter until smooth. Press this into a lined 8×8 pan to create your soft “nougat” layer. ☁️🥜📏
- The Caramel Layer: Pour your thick caramel sauce evenly over the base layer as seen in the photo! 🍯🌊🤤
- Chill Out: Pop the pan into the freezer for about 30–60 minutes to let that caramel set so it doesn’t mix with the chocolate. ⏲️❄️
- Chocolate Topping: Melt your milk chocolate chips and the ½ cup of creamy peanut butter together in the microwave in 30-second bursts until silky smooth. 🍫🥜🌪️
- The Final Coat: Pour the chocolate mixture over the chilled caramel layer and spread it to the edges. 🍫🤝✨
- Set & Slice: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until firm. Lift out of the pan and slice into bars! 🔪😋✨
🔥 Pro Tips:
- The “Perfect Layer” Secret: If your caramel sauce is a bit thin, simmer it on the stove for a few minutes to thicken it up before pouring! 🍯🛡️💎
- Salted Twist: Add a tiny pinch of sea salt to the melted chocolate for a “Salted Milky Way” vibe! 🧂🍫🎯
