Steps:

• For the chocolate layer: Combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a double boiler over low heat. Heat until melted and stir until smooth. Let sit until thickened slightly, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Spoon 1 tablespoon of the chocolate mixture into each cavity of a 6-cavity round cylinder silicone mold (2-inch-wide by 1-inch-deep cavities). Use a small pastry brush to paint the chocolate up the sides of the molds, making sure to cover the entire inside of each mold. (If your chocolate is too hot and doesn't coat the molds, refrigerate for a few minutes, then try again.) Refrigerate or freeze until set, about 10 minutes.
• For the nougat layer: Stir the marshmallow creme and peanut butter together in a small bowl. It should be the consistency of putty.
• For the caramel layer: Put the caramel sauce in a separate bowl. Stir in the confectioners' sugar 1 tablespoon at a time, until the mixture is thick but still pourable.
• For the assembly: Grease 2 teaspoons with coconut oil spray. Use the teaspoons to place a heaping tablespoon of the nougat into each mold, pressing to make a smooth layer. Sprinkle over the peanuts and press into the nougat. Use the same teaspoons to add a heaping tablespoon of the caramel to each mold, stopping about 1/4 inch from the top of the molds. Pour the remaining chocolate over the caramel and spread gently with a small offset spatula to completely cover the caramel. Refrigerate or freeze until set, at least 30 minutes.
• Remove the chocolates from the molds. Microwave the candy melting wafers in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring in between each, until melted and smooth. Drizzle the melted white candy over top of the rounds and sprinkle over the popping candies to decorate.

• Divide dough in half.
• Knead the melted chocolate and nuts into half the dough.
• Knead the miniature chocolate pieces and rum flavoring into the other half of the dough.
• Divide each portion of dough in half (you should now have four"portions.") To shape dough, line the bottom and sides of a 9x5x3 loaf pan with waxed paper or clear plastic wrap.
• Press half the chocolate dough evenly into pan.
• Top with half the vanilla dough, the remaining chocolate dough, and the remaining vanilla dough, pressing each layer firmly and evenly over the preceding layer.
• Invert pan to remove dough.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, melt the butterscotch chips and peanut butter in the microwave, stir until smooth. Stir in the cereal until it is well coated. Put half of the mixture into a greased 9x13 pan.
• In another large bowl microwave the cholate chips and butter. When its melted stir in 2 T of the water. Add the powdered sugar slowly while blending. Add more water as needed to keep the mixture spreadable. Spread this over the cereal mixture.
• Refrigerate this for about 10 minutes or so until its hard enough to put the rest of the cereal on top.
• Spread the remaining cereal on top, sometimes I will have to microwave it for a few seconds to get it loose enough to spread again.
• Refrigerate for a while until they are firm enough to cut. Sometimes I skip this step and just eat them a little gooey. :-).
• You can cut into squares, wrap tightly then freeze. They keep well for a least a few weeks, mine have never lasted any longer.
