On the Tenth Day of Christmas...Salted Nut Roll Bars

I couldn't find my recipe card for this tonight.  I looked through all of recipe books and other various places it could be but couldn't find it anywhere so I had to use Google to help me find another one.

I make these every year, especially since my sister in law Jill loves them.  They taste pretty much like the Salted Nut Roll candy bar you buy at the store.

1 1/2 (16 oz.) jars dry roasted peanuts
1 (12 oz.) pkg. peanut butter chips
1 (10 1/2 oz.) pkg. mini marshmallows
3 tbsp. butter
1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk

Melt butter and chips. Add sweetened condensed milk. Cook for 2 minutes. Put in 1/2 of marshmallows. Let them melt, then add other half. Grease pan, cover bottom of a 9 x 13 inch pan with half of the peanuts. Add cooked mixture; spread. Then add rest of peanuts.




You can substitute the peanut butter chips for peanut butter, which is what I did tonight.  I don't recommend it.  The peanut butter chips melt more smoothly  which will make your recipe easier.  I only did it because I forgot the peanut butter chips the last time I went to the store and I was too lazy to go back.

I have never tried this before but I don't see why you couldn't put some sort of chocolate over the top of it to make it taste like a Payday candy bar.  I bet that would be delicious.

Tomorrow I will be attempting frosted sugar cookies.  Wish me luck because I will surely need it.

Thanks,
Jules
