HOLD THE PHONE!!!
I was posting this later in the week, but I am still in a sugar coma from how AMAZING these Snickers Brownies were!
This is one of those recipes that has INSTANTLY become a classic in our home. I am a ROCK STAR around here today!
First Layer: The Brownie.
Take a mix, make it according to directions. Add an entire jar of hot fudge sauce to the batter, directly from the hot fudge jar. Stir it all in.
Bake. DO NOT OVERBAKE. In fact, I pulled mine out and was just a little worried about the center, but it finished baking after it was out.
Get a kid to help you if you have a spare. 🙂
Layer 2: The Nugget.
This is the most complicated layer. Not really that hard, so don’t worry.
** I used Trader Joes Cookie Butter INSTEAD of Peanut Butter in this recipe. I am weird that way.
Melt the butter, with the sugar and the milk. Bring to a boil and add the marshmallow. Add the peanut butter and vanilla. Then stir in peanuts. Pour over cooled brownies.
Layer 3: Caramel.
I used Butterscotch Caramel. Mrs. Renfros (sp?) is the best, but Walmart didn’t have it. Dang.
Scoop the caramel into a pan, heat it up just a little so it is liquidy and not all cold and hard to spread. Then pour over nugget layer that is solid because you had it in the fridge!
Layer #4: The Chocolate Topping
Taa Daaa! You are almost ready to eat yourself silly!
Take the PB and add it to a bag of chocolate chips in a pan, add about 1T oil. Melt the chips slowly, do NOT burn.
When it is smooth, pour it over the caramel layer.
Stick that back in the fridge, and when the top layer is set, you are ready to eat!
I would suggest cutting into small squares. It is soooo rich! But sooooo good! It tastes JUST like a Snickers Bar but better!
You know how you have that stand by recipe you take everywhere because it is really good and everyone asks for the recipe? Yeah, that will be this one!

I have made these twice now. They do turn out quite rich and delicious. However, allow more time to complete the recipe with all of the layers. Also, after trying for a second time, I would cut the nugget layer in half. It was thicker than even the brownie layer and could definitely be reduced. Be sure to use a good quality caramel sauce. Otherwise this is a recipe that will serve a lot because they are so gooey and rich.
