Equipment
- Medium saucepan
- Wooden spoon
- Measuring cups and spoons
- 8×8 inch baking dish
- Parchment paper
Ingredients
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1/3 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Mini marshmallows
- 1 cup Cherry-flavored chips
- 1 cup Semisweet chocolate
- 1/2 cup Peanut butter
- 1/2 cup Chopped peanuts
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Cherry Mixture
- Heat sugar, heavy cream, and marshmallows in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir until the marshmallows melt and the mixture is smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in the cherry-flavored chips until melted.
- Note: Keep the heat medium to avoid burning the marshmallows, which can create a bitter flavor.
Step 2: Form the Base
- Pour the cherry mixture into a parchment-lined baking dish.
- Spread evenly and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour until set.
Step 3: Make the Chocolate Topping
- Melt semisweet chocolate and peanut butter in a saucepan over low heat.
- Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth.
- Remove from the heat and mix in the chopped peanuts and vanilla extract.
- Warning: Be cautious with the heat when melting chocolate. Too high a temperature can cause it to seize!
Step 4: Combine Layers
- Pour the chocolate mixture over the chilled cherry base.
- Spread evenly and return to the refrigerator until the chocolate sets.
Notes
- For a crunchier texture, add more chopped peanuts to the topping.
- If cherry-flavored chips are unavailable, try substituting with raspberry or strawberry chips for a different but equally delicious flavor profile.
