  • 1/2 -3/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • Top chocolate layer
  • 1 1/2 cups milk chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup pretzels sticks
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips, melted

Instructions
  1. Line a 9×13 inch pan with nonstick foil and let some hang over the edges.  Melt 1 1/4 cups chocolate chips with
    1/4-cup peanut butter in microwave, then pour into the
    baking dish and spread until even. Place in the freezer a few mins until set.
  2. Make the nougat layer. Melt the butter in a
    saucepan over medium heat. Add in sugar and milk, stirring until
    dissolved and bring to a boil. Let cook for 5 minutes, stirring
    occasionally. Add in marshmallow fluff and vanilla, stirring until
    smooth. Turn off heat and fold in peanuts, then pour over bottom
    chocolate layer. Place in freezer until firm. 
  3. Make the caramel layer. Combine the caramels and
    cream in the microwave until smooth.  Pour over nougat layer
    and stick back in freezer until firm. 
  4. Make the cookie dough.   Beat butter,  add the brown sugar, cream, vanilla. Beat
    until combined, fluffy and light in color. Beat in the flour and salt
    until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Spread the cookie dough
    over the caramel layer gently with an offset spatula and yes, back into the freezer!
  5. Melt
    1 1/2 cups chocolate chips with 1/4-cup peanut butter in microwave.  Pour over caramel and spread until even. Sprinkle
    with the pretzels and drizzle with the remaining melted chocolate. Let
    cool and harden completely.
  6. Refrigerate
    for at least one hour before serving, then cut as desired. I had some trouble cutting these and many of my pretzels came off.  Next time I will cut the bars and THEN drizzle each individual one with chocolate and “attach” the pretzels.

FALL IN LOVE WITH MUDDY BUDDY COOKIES

 I do believe I have a new favorite cookie. Muddy Buddy cookies!!! Once these are complete, the cookie gets softer and when you bite into it…it’s like eating a Reese’s peanut butter cup cookie! Yup! That good!  Last time I made these, I did have trouble getting my chocolate to thin out (tried making it 3x) and had to spread it on rather than dip, so this time I changed up the chocolate dip recipe. You’ll find it below.

 

Muddy Buddy Ingredients

Cookie

    • 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
    • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
    • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
    • 1 egg
    • 1 Tbsp vanilla
    • 1 tsp baking soda
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 1 1/4 cup flour

 

My Coating that worked great for me:

  • 5 ounces hershey’s chocolate bar
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

How to Make

    1. Preheat oven to 350°F
    2. Line a baking sheet with parchment
    3. Cream butter and peanut butter together until smooth. Add both sugars and beat for 2 minutes.
    4. Add egg, vanilla, baking soda and salt. 
    5. Add flour.
    6. Scoop tablespoon amounts. Roll into a ball and then flatten to approximately 1/2 inch thick. Place on baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
    7. Bake for 10 minutes until golden edges.
    8. Remove from oven and cool completely.

 

Coating

  1. In microwave safe bowl combine chocolate and peanut butter. Heat on high for 45 seconds and then stir until smooth.
  2. Place powdered sugar in bowl.
  3. Dip each cookie in chocolate and using a fork remove cookie, tapping off excess chocolate. You don’t need a lot of chocolate coating on the cookies.
  4. Immediately dip the cookie into the powdered sugar and toss to coat completely. (I ACTUALLY LET THE CHOCOLATE SET UP A BIT FIRST AND THEN DIPPED IN THE SUGAR.)
  5. Place back on cooling rack to until chocolate is set. Repeat for all cookies.

Store at room temp covered
