Candy Bar Crunch Brownie Bars!- FOOD PHOTO SHOOT

It’s been too long since the last time I created a new outrageously layered cookie bar, don’t you think?

Well, recently with all the holidays upon us I’ve been baking a lot for my family and it’s always fun to throw something new into the mix along with all the seasonal favorites. That’s why it’s pretty dangerous to leave any unwanted candy or baking ingredients around me for long, because they will inevitably end up in a dessert.

It’s been almost a month since Halloween but there’s always those stray candies left that didn’t get eaten by the hungry kiddos, or is that just in my house?

Well, for some reason the Milky May candy bars from the fun size mix were not anyone’s favorite and they were still hanging around in the pantry the same day I was planning some recipes.

So I grabbed those but I also knew that I wanted to create something that focused on the balance between sweet and salty. I guess that’s because, growing up, my mother was always baking things to take to gatherings and parties for the holidays and one of the simple favorites were those little 3-ingredient pretzel/rolo/pecan bites. Wow, those things are addictive.

I think what makes them the best is the combination of chocolate, something salty and crunchy, and something sweet and chewy so tried to use that as a guide for creating these. You’ve just gotta have the crunch so that’s why I used ritz crackers and the milky way bars with the rice crispies create another layer of on the top that’s both chewy and crunchy. Needless to say these were popular when I finished them and finally shared them.

So let’s break this down. You start by making a layer of my favorite brownies ever, but wait there’s more! You top those brownies with the crispy crunchiness of some ritz crackers baked on top, but there’s still more!

Then you add a layer of rice crispy cereal coated in the fudgiest mixture of chocolate and milky way candy bars and a sprinkle of candy bar chunks with some marshmallows for good measure!
