                    This fudge was included in my Christmas treats that I took to the teachers at school. It was the first to be gone, and I had lots of requests for the recipe! Ingredients: 
                    
                        
                                                1/2 cup butter  |  
                                                1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder  |  
                                                1/4 cup packed brown sugar  |  
                                                1/4 cup milk  |  
                                                3 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar  |  
                                                1 teaspoon vanilla extract  |  
                                                30 individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped  |  
                                                1 tablespoon water  |  
                                                2 cups salted peanuts  |  
                                                1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips  |  
                                                1/2 cup milk chocolate chips  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. Grease an 8x8 inch square baking pan. 2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine butter, cocoa powder, brown sugar and milk. Microwave until mixture boils. Stir in confectioners' sugar and vanilla extract. Pour into prepared pan. 3. In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave caramels and water until caramels melt. Stir in peanuts. Spread mixture over chocolate layer. 4. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine semisweet and milk chocolate chips; microwave until melted. Spread over caramel layer.
