Provided by Ashley Fehr

Categories     Dessert

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup roasted, salted peanuts
1 cup roasted, salted cashews
2 cups mini marshmallows
36 caramel candies, unwrapped ((like Kraft))
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9x13" pan with tin foil or parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together flour and sugar. Cut butter into cubes and add to flour, mixing with a pastry cutter, mixer, or your hands until crumbly -- if it holds together when you squeeze it, it's ready.
  • Press into prepared pan and bake for 10-12 minutes, until dry looking but not browned.
  • Sprinkle peanuts, cashews and marshmallows over the crust after it has baked.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, stir together caramels and cream until melted and smooth.
  • Pour over nuts and marshmallows on crust, drizzling in a thin line to get as much coverage as possible.
  • Bake for 6-8 minutes, until caramel is just bubbling at the edges.
  • Remove and cool completely before slicing.

CARAMEL-NUT BARS



Caramel-Nut Bars image

Salted nuts balance the sweetness of caramel in these candylike cookies. These bars are quite rich, so feel free to cut them in half.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/4 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) pecans
1 cup (4 1/2 ounces) salted cashews
1 cup (5 ounces) salted peanuts
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons plus a pinch of salt
4 cups granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 15-by-10-inch rimmed baking sheet, and line with parchment paper, leaving a 1-inch overhang on long sides; set aside. Spread nuts on another rimmed baking sheet. Toast until nuts are fragrant and lightly golden around the edges, about 10 minutes. Transfer nuts to a clean surface; spread evenly, and let cool completely. Coarsely chop, and set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat 2 sticks of butter with the brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. With mixer on low speed, add flour and a pinch of salt; mix until just combined.
  • Transfer dough to prepared baking sheet, and cover with parchment paper. Using a wine bottle or small rolling pin, roll along the length of pan to smooth dough. (Alternatively, press the dough into the pan with the back of a large spoon.) Bake until lightly golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Combine granulated sugar, cream of tartar, remaining 2 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1 cupwater in a wide, heavy-bottom saucepan. Cook over high heat, without stirring, until some sugar begins to melt and turn golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; continue to cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until sugar is completely melted, mixture is deep golden, and a candy thermometer registers 300 degrees (hard-crack stage). Stirring constantly, carefully pour cream slowly down the side of the pan (it will spatter) until fully combined. Remove from heat; add remaining 1/4 stick butter and stirto combine.Transfer caramel to a heatproof bowl to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Stir in nuts; spread caramel mixture over cooled crust. Bake until caramel is set, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Cut into 3-by-2-inch bars. Bars can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
