PAYDAY PEANUT SQUARES

Ingredients

  • 4 cups roasted or honey roasted peanuts

  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14oz)

  • 1 package mini marshmallows (10-12oz )

  • 1 package peanut butter chips (10oz)

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter

  • 1/2 cup butter


Directions:

  1. Line a 13 x 9 inch baking dish foil.

  2. Coat foil with cooking spray.

  3. Sprinkle 2 cups of the peanuts on the bottom of the pan.

  4. In a medium to large saucepan, combine sweetened condensed milk, marshmallows, peanut butter chips, butter and peanut butter.

  5. Cook over medium heat until melted and smooth. Stir often to avoid scorching the bottom of the pan.

  6. Pour into your prepared dish over the peanuts.

  7. Spread evenly.

  8. Sprinkle the remaining peanuts over the smooth mixture and press down. I used parchment paper between my hands and the peanuts.

  9. Cover and place in the refrigerator for at least an hour.

  10. Lift foil out of the pan. Sometimes I flip it over onto parchment paper, then remove the foil.

  11. Cut into squares.

  12. Store in an airtight container.
