Snicker Bar Brownies

Yum, yum and more yum! One of IT Guy's favorite candy bars is a Snickers so I knew right off the bat that he would love this. What I love is how easy it is. Using a cake mix was fun and these turn out just like brownies! I think the hardest part was unwrapping all those little caramels...but you know what? Worth it!

Snicker Bar Brownies



1 14-ounce bag caramels (about 50)
2/3 cup (1 5-oz. can) evaporated milk ~ divided use
1 German chocolate cake mix
3/4 cup butter ~ melted
1 cup peanuts
1 cup milk chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 9x13 inch pan with cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, melt unwrapped caramels with 1/3 cup evaporated milk. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, melted butter, nuts and remaining 1/3 cup evaporated milk.

Press half of the dough into prepared pan. This will be a thin layer.

Bake 6 minutes.

Remove pan from oven and pour caramel mixture over the dough. Sprinkle with chocolate chips.

Crumble remaining dough over caramel and return to the oven for another 15 - 20 minutes until top is set and brownies pull away from the sides of the pan.

Cool brownies in the pan for 30 minutes then chill until firm.

Here the goods. NOTE: I only 

used one can of evaporated milk. 

Two are shown but I only used ONE.

Melt the caramels with 1/3 

cup of the evaporated milk.

Combine the cake mix, melted butter, 

peanuts and the remaining 1/3 cup evaporated milk.

Just like this.

Add half of the batter to a 9x13 inch pan. 

This will be a thin layer. Bake 6 minutes until set.

Then carefully pour the melted caramels 

over the partially baked layer and spread gently.

Sprinkle with chocolate chips.

Crumble the remaining batter 

mixture over the chocolate chips.

Bake it up! Center will be a little jiggly 

but will firm up as it cools. Allow to 

cool completely before slicing.

Slice and enjoy!
