I've been making these yummy candies for many years. With their three rich gooey layers, a little goes a long way. One batch is enough to please a crowd. Ingredients:
3 cups (18 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips |
2 cups creamy peanut butter |
1 cup butter, cubed |
1/2 cup evaporated milk |
1/4 cup instant vanilla pudding mix |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 pounds confectioners' sugar |
3 cups salted peanuts |
Directions:
1. In a heavy saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate chips and peanut butter, stirring frequently. Pour half into a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. pan; chill. Set remaining chocolate mixture aside.
2. In another saucepan, bring butter, milk and pudding mix to a boil; boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; pour into a large bowl; add vanilla. Gradually stir in sugar. Spread over chocolate layer in pan; chill.
3. Add peanuts to reserved chocolate mixture; spread over filling. Chill. Cut into 1-in. x 1-1/2-in. pieces. Yield: 12-1/2 dozen.
