Ingredients

  • Nonstick cooking spray

  • 1 (14.3-oz.) pkg. chocolate sandwich cookies with white filling (36 cookies)

  • 1/3 cup salted butter, melted

  • 1 1/4 cups sugar

  • 1/3 cup salted butter

  • 1 (5-oz.) can evaporated milk (2/3 cup), divided

  • 1 (7-oz.) jar marshmallow creme

  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

  • 1¾ cups cocktail peanuts or salted cashews, chopped

  • 1 (14-oz.) pkg. vanilla caramels (about 50), unwrapped

  • 1 1/2 cups milk chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 13x9-inch baking pan with foil, extending foil over edges of pan. Lightly coat foil with cooking spray. Place cookies in a food processor. Cover and process until very finely chopped. In a medium bowl combine cookie crumbs and ⅓ cup melted butter. Firmly press crumb mixture into bottom of prepared pan. Bake until set, 12 minutes. Cool in pan on a wire rack.

  2. For nougat, in a medium saucepan combine sugar, ⅓ cup butter, and ½ cup of the evaporated milk. Bring to boiling over medium-high, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat to medium. Simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat. Stir in marshmallow crème and peanut butter. Stir in chopped nuts. Pour nougat over crust in baking pan. Carefully spread evenly to edges. Place pan in freezer 20 minutes while preparing caramel layer.

  3. For caramel layer, place caramels and remaining evaporated milk (about 2 Tbsp.) in a medium bowl. Microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, until caramels are melted, 1½ to 2 minutes. Pour caramel mixture evenly over nougat layer in pan, carefully spreading to edges. Return pan to freezer 10 to 15 minutes.

  4. In a small bowl microwave chocolate chips, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth, about 1 minute. Pour melted chocolate over caramel layer. Spread evenly to edges. Cover and chill until firm, 2 hours. Use edges of foil to lift uncut bars from pan. Transfer to a cutting board. Cut into bars..
