Foodporn: Icebox Candy Bars




This is pure food porn! I found this recipe and amazing pics at Cookies and Cups and I was drooling while reading her post and of course I HAD to share it with you. In theses Icebox Candy Bars you've got chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter, twix, kit kat AND Nestlé Crunch Bars. That's a hardcore Candy Bar! It's like eating four desserts at the same time:-) I encourage you to check out Cookies and Cups for more inspiring recipes.



Icebox Candy Bars
3 cups crushed crunchy chocolate chip cookies, such as Keebler or Chips Ahoy (approx 24 cookies)
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 1/4 cup peanut butter
1 cup chopped Twix bars, approx 12 mini bars
1 cup chopped Kit Kat (3/4" pieces) about 8 snack size packs.
1 (11.5 oz) bag of mini Nestle Crunch Bars

  1. Line a 9x9 pan with aluminum foil and grease lightly with butter
  2. Crush your chocolate chip cookies in the food processor or in a ziplock bag until they are a fine crumb.
  3. Mix in your powdered sugar with the cookie crumbs.
  4. In a microwave safe bowl melt peanut butter for 1 minute. Stir.
  5. Pour peanut butter over your cookie crumbs and stir until evenly coated.
  6. Set aside to cool for approx 10 minutes.
  7. Meanwhile chop your Twix and Kit Kat bars. When mixture is cooled, fold in your chopped candy bars.
  8. Dump this mixture into your prepared pan and spread evenly. Refrigerate this until set, about 30 minutes.
  9. When chilled, place unwrapped Nestle Crunch bars into a microwave safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds. Remove and stir. If not melted continue heating in 15 second increments until chocolate is melted.
  10. Remove pan from fridge and pour melted Nestle Crunch bars on top, spreading evenly.
  11. Place back in refrigerator for 20-30 more minutes until top layer is set.
  12. Remove from fridge, and let sit for 10 minutes at room temperature before slicing into squares or bars.


ENJOY!
