    Title: Caramel Peanut Nougat Bars
    Categories: Candy, Nuts, Chocolate, Snacks
    Yield: 24 servings

    1/4 c Karo syrup
    2 tb Butter
    1 tb Vanilla
    2 tb Peanut butter
    pn Salt
    3 c Confectioners' sugar
    35 Caramels
    1 c Peanuts; chopped
    12 oz Chocolate morsels

    Combine corn syrup, butter, vanilla, peanut butter and
    salt until creamy. Mix in the confectioners' sugar. When
    the mixture is very thick, press it into a lightly
    greased 9" X 9" pan. Refrigerate.

    Melt the caramels in a double boiler over hot water.
    When soft, mix in the peanuts. Pour over the mixture in
    the pan. Refrigerate.

    Melt the chocolate in a microwave oven set on high for 2
    minutes. Stir halfway through cooking time.

    When the mixture in the pan is firm, cut it into 2" X 1"
    bars. Spear a bar on a fork and dip into the melted
    chocolate. Tap to knock off any excess drips.

    If you like, roll into finely chopped peanuts. Place on
    waxed paper to cool to room temperature.
