This recipe from my daughter caught my eye because it reminded me of a favorite candy bar of mine as a child. I love the fudge-like texture. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon plus 1/2 cup butter, softened, divided |
2 cups sugar |
12 large marshmallows |
1 can (5 ounces) evaporated milk |
dash salt |
1 cup vanilla or white chips |
1-1/2 teaspoons cherry extract |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips |
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter |
1/4 cup finely chopped dry roasted peanuts |
Directions:
1. Line a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. pan with foil. Grease the foil with 1 tablespoon butter; set aside.
2. In a large heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, marshmallows, milk, salt and remaining butter. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in vanilla chips and extracts until smooth. Pour into prepared pan.
3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Stir in peanut butter and peanuts. Drop by tablespoonfuls over first layer; cut through with a knife to swirl. Chill until firm.
4. Using foil, lift candy out of pan. Discard foil. Break candy into pieces. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Yield: about 2 pounds.
