    No Bake Chocolate Caramel Nutty Crunch Bars

    These impressive and magnificent triple layered No Bake Chocolate Caramel Nutty Crunch Bars are so heavenly yummy, you'll wish you knew of them sooner! 

    If you love peanut butter, marshmallow, chocolate, crunchy cocoa krispies, salted peanuts and caramel for your sweet tooth craving fix, this will surely hit the spot.  BTW...I just want to state now....Before I introduce these to you, I cannot be responsible for how many you eat or anything like that.  🙂

    These 3 divine layers of these bars consist of:

    1. A bottom layer consisting of chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, peanut butter and crunchy cocoa krispies.
    2. A middle layer of peanut butter marshmallow nougat loaded with salted chopped nuts and chopped caramel (I used Rolo's).
    3. A top layer of the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, peanut butter and crunchy cocoa krispies.

    These indulgent guys are perfect for your family gatherings, potlucks, sporting and special events and they are better than anything you'll find in the store.

    I made them this past weekend and they were a hit for sure.  My brother and his family came into town and I thought these would go over good for sure. And they sure did!  

    Serve them straight from the fridge or serve at room temperature, but beyond that, in high hot temps they will melt, like chocolate does.

    This recipe makes 18 large bars or you can make these smaller bars, depending how you want to serve them.

    They No Bake Chocolate Caramel Nutty Crunch Bars are very rich, like a guilty pleasure you know should stop eating after one bite, but it's completely hopeless to even dare to think about stopping now!  HELLO!!  🙂  Hope you enjoy!

    For other no bake goodies, you may love these Healthy Dark Chocolate No-Bake Cookies, these No Bake Chewy Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Granola Bars and of course these Peanut Butter Bars!
