Candy Bar Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Freeze the candy bars. Combine the egg, milk and vegetable oil in a cup. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well with a whisk. Cover and refrigerate for a few minutes while the oil heats.
• Heat 4 cups of oil to 375 degrees F in a heavy-bottomed pot or a deep-fryer. Remove the batter from the refrigerator and adjust the consistency, if necessary. Dip the chilled candy bars in the batter and gently put them into the oil. Cook only until the outside is golden. Remove the bars from the oil and drain on paper towels before serving.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients for the centers, except for the powdered sugar, in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir often as the caramel slowly melts. When the mixture is smooth, add 3/4 cup of powdered sugar and stir. Save the remaining 1/2 cup of powdered sugar for later. Use a candy thermometer to bring the mixture to exactly 230 degrees, stirring often, then turn off the heat. When the temperature of the candy begins to drop, add the remaining 1/2 cup of powdered sugar to the pan, then use a hand mixer on high speed to combine. Keep mixing until the candy cools and thickens and can no longer be mixed. That should take 1 to 2 minutes. Let the candy cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes, or until it can be touched. Don't let it sit too long-- you want the candy to still be warm and pliable when you shape it. Take a teaspoon-size portion and roll it between your palms or on a countertop until it forms a roll with the width of your index finger, and measuring about 4 1/2-inches long. Repeat with the remaining center candy mixture and place the rolls on waxed paper. You should have 8 rolls. Let the center rolls sit out for 1 to 2 hours to firm up.
• Combine the 20 caramels with the 1 1/2 teaspoons of water in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir often until the caramels melt completely, then turn off the heat. If you work fast this caramel will stay warm while you make the candy bars. Pour the peanuts onto a baking sheet or other flat surface. Using a basting brush and working quickly, "paint: a coating of caramel onto one side of a center roll. Quickly turn the center over, caramel side down, onto the peanuts and press gently so that the peanuts stick to the surface of the candy. Paint more caramel onto the other side of the roll and press it down onto the peanuts. The candy should have a solid layer of peanuts covering all sides. If needed, brush additional caramel onto the roll, then turn it onto the peanuts to coat the roll completely. Place the candy bar onto waxed paper, and repeat with the remaining ingredients. Place the bars into your refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours so that they firm up. Pour the milk chocolate chips into a glass or ceramic bowl and zap it in the microwave for 2 minutes on 50 percent power. Gently stir the chips, then heat for an additional 30 seconds at 50 percent power. Repeat if necessary, stirring gently after each 30 seconds. Don't over-cook the chips or the chocolate will burn and seize up on you. Drop a candy bar center into the melted milk chocolate. Cover the candy bar with chocolate using 2 forks, 1 in each hand. When the candy is covered with chocolate, balance the bar on both of the forks, one at each end of the candy bar, and tap the forks on the top edge of the bowl so that much of the chocolate drops off. Carefully place the candy bar onto waxed paper and remove the 2 forks. Repeat with the remaining ingredients, and then chill the candy bars until firm.

Steps:

• On a lightly floured cutting board, roll out 1 piece of puff pastry into a rectangle about 1/16-inch thick. Brush generously with the melted butter, then place in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set the butter. Repeat with the remaining sheet of puff pastry.
• Lightly brush the top of the puff pastry with ice water. Arrange the candy bars in a line on the bottom edge, leaving a small space between each. Using a pizza wheel, cut the pastry into strips between the candy bars. Roll the candy bars up tightly, pressing the edges to seal. Place in the freezer to rest while oven heats up.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment and arrange the croissants at least 4 inches apart, seam-side down. Brush well with melted butter, then bake for 15 minutes. Brush again with butter, rotate the pans, and bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes more. Allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Grease a 9 by 13-inch cake pan (aluminum is fine) with butter. Beat the 1 1/2 sticks butter and the sugar together in a large bowl until blended. Beat in the eggs 1 at a time, then stir in water and vanilla. Sprinkle the salt and baking powder over the mixture, then mix in. Do the same with the cocoa. Finally, stir in the flour until just blended.
• Put the candy bars in a food processor or blender and pulse on low speed until all the bars have been reduced to a coarse crumble. Fold the crumble into the batter thoroughly. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for about 30 minutes, until the center is set, the edges look a bit crusty, and the top of the brownies start to crack a little. Cool completely before cutting into squares.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F.
• Line 13x9-inch pan with parchment, with ends of parchment extending over sides. Finely crush 5 cups pretzels; place in medium bowl. Add brown sugar and butter; mix well. Press onto bottom of prepared pan. Bake 10 min.

• Melt 1/2 cup chocolate chips as directed on package; stir into remaining batter. Pour over peanut butter layer in pan; spread to evenly cover peanut butter layer with chocolate batter.
• Bake 40 min. or until center is almost set. Cool 1 hour. Refrigerate 4 hours.
• Melt remaining chocolate chips; drizzle over cheesecake. Crush remaining pretzels lightly; sprinkle over cheesecake. Top with nuts. Use parchment handles to remove cheesecake from pan before cutting into bars.

Steps:

• Melt together 1 cup milk chocolate chips, 1/4 cup butterscotch chips, and 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter then spread on bottom of 9 X 13 cake pan- put in refrigerator or freezer to set up while next layer is prepared.

• Too wonderful for words!

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• 2. Cream together the butter and the sugars until fluffy, beat in the eggs and vanilla. Add the flour with the baking powder and salt mixed inches Stir until blended. Fold in gently the chopped candy bars. If desired, add a cup of chopped almonds, walnuts, pecans or other nut.
• 3. Drop on a cookie sheet in the size you wish and bake until edges are browned nicely in the middle of the oven (ten minutes or less). Transfer to a cooling rack. From here they disappeared so I can't tell you shelf life but assume these will freeze nicely and ship well.

Steps:

• Bake cake in glass 9x13 pan according to directions on the box.
• Allow to cool for five minutes, then poke holes randomly in cake with bamboo skewer or chopstick or something similar.
• Pour sweetened condensed milk over cake, allowing cake to absorb.
• Pour caramel topping over cake, allowing cake to absorb.
• Allow cake to cool completely.
• Frost with Cool Whip.
• Chop candy bars, and sprinkle on top.
• Drizzle decoratively with left over caramel topping.
• Keep refrigerated until serving time.

Steps:

• Chill the candy by keeping it in the fridge but don't freeze it or else this recipe won't work.
• Sift the dry ingredients together in a bowl. Pour in milk until it's a rich, creamy consistency, this is give or take 1 cup.
• Fully coat the candy in the batter.
• DEEP FRYER METHOD.
• Using a strong wooden skewer (metal will burn your hands severely), pierce it through the bottom and lower it into an oil-filled deep fryer and remove when golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.
• PAN FRY METHOD.
• Heat 1-2" of oil in a frying pan. Drop the battered candy bar into the oil and fry on all sides, turning with a spatula or slotted spoon. Remove when golden brown, about 5-8 minutes.
• They are awesome when chopped into bits and served with ice cream!
