At a recent Foodie Friends meeting, everyone brought different foods inspired by their favorite Halloween treats. Check out the winning recipe by senior Scar Kenyon below. 

Brownie Layer

For the brownie layer, a store-bought mix such as Betty Crocker’s brownie mix would be best since this recipe is more complicated. Follow the instructions accordingly on the box mix. 

Nougat Layer

 cup ( stick) unsalted butter

1 cup granulated sugar

 cup heavy whipping cream

 cup creamy peanut butter

1 jar (7 ounces) marshmallow fluff

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups salted peanuts

Add butter, sugar, and heavy cream to a medium saucepan. Stir until the mixture boils.

Boil until the mixture reaches 246°F, for about 6 minutes. Turn off the heat. Stir in the peanut butter, marshmallow fluff, and vanilla. Stir until combined.

Pour over the chilled brownies. Place the salted peanuts on the nougat in an even layer. Place in refrigerator to let cool completely. 

Caramel Layer

1 bag caramel bits

 cup heavy whipping cream

In a bowl, add caramels and heavy cream. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until thoroughly melted and combined. Pour over the nougat layer and let cool. 

Chocolate Layer

Add chocolate chips and oil to a bowl. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted.

Pour the chocolate mixture over the top of the caramel. Let chocolate cool in the fridge for 10-15 minutes.
