Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 7 ounces marshmallow fluff
  • 2/3 cup Nutella
  • 12 ounces chocolate divided
  • 7 ounces caramels
  • 3 tablespoons milk

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Double boiler or microwave-safe bowl
  • Spatula
  • 9x9 inch baking pan
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Baking Pan. Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.
  2. Step 2: Make the Marshmallow Layer. In a mixing bowl, combine the marshmallow fluff and Nutella. Stir until well mixed and spread evenly into the prepared pan.
  3. Step 3: Prepare the Caramel Layer. In a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl, combine caramels and milk. Heat gently until melted and smooth, then pour over the marshmallow layer.
  4. Step 4: Melt the Chocolate. Melt 8 ounces of chocolate and pour over the caramel layer, spreading evenly.
  5. Step 5: Chill the Bars. Place the pan in the refrigerator for about 2 hours until set.
  6. Step 6: Cut and Serve. Lift the bars out using the parchment paper overhang, cut into squares, and drizzle remaining chocolate on top if desired.

Notes

  • Use good quality chocolate for melting for the best taste.
  • Don't rush the chilling process; it's key for the right texture.
  • Add chopped nuts or pretzels to the marshmallow layer for crunch.
