Nut Goody Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Step 1 Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper, grease and set aside. Step 2 In a microwave safe bowl, combine the butterscotch chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals; stirring after each 30-seconds. Step 3 Once the mixture is completely melted and smooth, add the mini marshmallows & Spanish peanuts and stir to combine. Step 4 Pour mixture into prepared 8x8 pan & refrigerate until hardened. Step 5 Once thoroughly cooled & hardened, cut into bars. Step 6 Store in an airtight container for a week or freeze in a sealed container for up to 2 months. Step 7 To double recipe, use a 9x13 & simply double the ingredients (or 10x15 jelly roll pan for thinner bars).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Line a 13x9-in. baking pan with foil, letting ends extend over sides by 1 in. Grease foil with 1 tablespoon butter., In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in the remaining butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in egg until blended (mixture will be dry). Press firmly onto bottom of prepared pan. , Bake 18-20 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cool on a wire rack., In a large heavy saucepan, combine honey, brown sugar and salt; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently to dissolve sugar. Boil 2 minutes without stirring. Stir in butter and cream; return to a boil. Cook and stir 1 minute or until smooth. Remove from heat; stir in nuts. Spread over crust., Bake 15-20 minutes or until topping is bubbly. Cool completely in pan on a wire rack. Lifting with foil, remove from pan. Discard foil; cut into bars.

Steps:

• 1. Line a 9x13 pan with foil, set aside. Using a medium to large glass bowl, add all chips and peanut butter...Microwave 1 minute, stir, 30 seconds stir, then 15 minute increments until melted and smooth. Pour half the mixture into the prepared pan. Spread evenly. Place pan in refrigerator for 20-30 minutes or until firm. Pour peanuts into remaining chocolate and set aside.
• 2. In a medium-large bowl add powdered sugar, set aside. In a small saucepan, add butter, milk and pudding, bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Don't worry if it separates...sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't...once it JUST comes to a boil, pour into powdered sugar, add maple and vanilla and mix until smooth and like nougat. I use my hand held mixer on low.
• 3. Remove pan from refrigerator and spread nougat over top. Place in freezer for 15 minutes. If remaining chocolate with peanuts is to firm to spread, pop in microwave at 15 second intervals, stirring each time, until melted enough to use. Then spread over nougat layer.
• 4. Allow to set up until firm, place in refrigerator to speed things up if desired. Turn pan out onto a large cutting board, peel off foil. Cut into desired size. I do 1"x1" squares if serving as candy and 3"x2" if using as bars.
