Directions
Bottom Chocolate Layer:
Melt milk chocolate chips, butterscotch chips and peanut butter in a pan over low heat; stirring constantly.
Pour mixture into a 9 x 13? baking pan lightly coated with nonstick spray or lined with plastic wrap which is long enough to drape over sides of the pan.
Spread mixture and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Nougat Layer:
Melt butter over medium heat in pan; add sugars and evaporated milk; bring to a boil, and cook additional 5 minutes while stirring.
Remove from the heat and add marshmallow creme and peanut butter.
Pour over the bottom layer and gently spread mixture.
If you use peanuts, scatter across the top. Place in the refrigerator for 15 to 30 minutes.
Caramel Layer:
Place the unwrapped caramel candy, butter, and cream in a medium saucepan.
Place over low heat and stir until the mixture has completely melted and is smooth.
Pour in the pan and quickly spread over nougat layer.
Place in the refrigerator for 15 to 30 minutes.
Melt milk chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and peanut butter in a pan over low heat, stirring consistently.
Pour over the caramel layer and spread. Place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before cutting into squares. Store in an air-tight container.
NOTE: You can substituted peanut butter chips for the butterscotch chip in one or both layers. Even though you can't see the peanuts, they are in this batch.
