Ingredients:

1 bag milk chocolate chips

1 bag butterscotch chips

1 14oz bag caramels

1 cup sugar

1 7oz jar marshmallow cream

1/4 cup butter or margarine

1/4 cup evaporated milk

1 cup peanut butter, divided

1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

1 tsp vanilla

1 1/2 cups salted peanuts

Directions:

1st LAYER

1 cup milk chocolate chips

1/4 cup butterscotch chips

FILLING

1/4 cup butter or margarine

1 cup sugar

1/4 cup evaporated milk

1 & 1/2 cups marshmallow cream

1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

1 tsp. vanilla

1 & 1/2 cup salted peanuts, chopped (I omitted this)

Melt butter in sauce pan on medium high heat, add sugar and milk and bring to a boil. Stir for 5 minutes. Mixture will start to follow your spoon before you add the other ingredients. If it is grainy looking (mine was not) you can use your beater to blend it and smooth it out. Remove from stove and stir in marshmallow cream, peanut butter and vanilla and peanuts. Mix until smooth. Spread over the first layer.

1 14oz. bag of Kraft caramels

1/4 cup whipping cream (you can use 1/8 -1/4 cup milk, but it won't be as thick)

Unwrap and melt the caramels w/ the cream in the microwave stirring every 30 seconds until melted. Pour over filling layer.

ICING/TOP LAYER

1 cup milk chocolate chips

1/4 cup butterscotch chips
