CHOCOLATE-PEANUT-BUTTER-CARAMEL CEREAL BARS



Chocolate-Peanut-Butter-Caramel Cereal Bars image

Here's a risk-free way to get rich quick: Try our easy take on the classic chocolate-caramel butter bars known as millionaire's shortbread. We swap in crispy, marshmallow-laden rice cereal for its base, and add a thin layer of peanut-butter caramel under the chocolate-shell topping. Just invest a little time to let it chill, and it pays off with every extravagant bite.

Time 1h15m

Yield Makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided, plus more for pan
1 bag (10 ounces) mini marshmallows
Pinch of flaky sea salt, such as Jacobsen or Maldon, plus more for sprinkling
4 cups puffed-rice cereal
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped (2/3 cup)

Steps:

  • Brush a 9-inch square baking pan with butter; line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a pot over medium heat. Add marshmallows and salt; cook, stirring, until melted. Remove from heat; stir in cereal. Press mixture into prepared pan in an even layer. Let cool 15 minutes.
  • In a small saucepan, combine sugar and 3 tablespoons water. Cover and cook over medium heat, swirling pan a few times, until sugar has dissolved and mixture comes to a boil. Uncover and cook, undisturbed, until mixture turns amber, about 3 minutes more. Remove from heat. Carefully add cream and 2 tablespoons butter (it will bubble up); stir until smooth. Let cool completely, about 1 hour. Whisk in peanut butter. Spread mixture evenly over crust and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Melt chocolate and remaining 3 tablespoons butter in a small heat-proof bowl set over (but not in) a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Spread evenly over caramel layer. Let stand 5 minutes, then sprinkle with salt and refrigerate until set, at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours. Lift from pan using overhangs. Using a serrated knife, cut into squares. Refrigerate in an airtight container between pieces of parchment up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for a richer flavor.
  • Make sure the butter is cold before creaming it with the sugar to create a light and fluffy texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a resealable plastic bag with the corner snipped off.
  • Be patient when dipping the bars in the chocolate; it takes a few tries to get the hang of it.
  • Store the bars in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These Chocolate Peanut Butter and Caramel Club Bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor, creamy peanut butter filling, and gooey caramel topping, these bars are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
