To keep things simple, because goodness knows we could all use a couple shortcuts during the holiday season, I used crunchy peanut butter to get both the peanuts and the peanut butter in there, and I used store bought caramel. If you haven’t made homemade peanut butter cups before they’re so easy! Topped with a little Maldon sea salt that looks basically like snow, they’re perfect for holiday gifting if you package them up prettily. I decided to put all that homemade Take 5 goodness in a peanut butter cup package for the neatest and prettiest presentation. And I thought probably even better made at home with better quality ingredients. Have you had the store-bought kind? They’re sweet and salty perfection with 5 layers (hence the name) – chocolate, peanut butter, peanuts, caramel, and pretzels.
#Take five candy recipe series
Perhaps it’s because we’re just coming off of Halloween, but when I was brainstorming ideas for a Christmas treat recipe to share with you for the latest installment of the Tastes of Home series organized by Kristen of Ella Claire, I couldn’t get homemade Take 5 candy bars out of my head. And for those of you who haven't heard of Take 5 candy bars, I hope that you give them a try next time you see them around.Īlso, stay tuned for a homemade Take 5 version of these brownies where you don't need to buy the candy bars! I'll be attempting the homemade version soon.Easy recipe for making homemade Take 5 Peanut Butter cups – the ultimate peanut butter cups with caramel, pretzels, and peanuts inside! I hope you like this recipe as much as I did. This recipe is pretty forgiving so adjust it to your liking. I used a 9x9 pan for the thicker brownies, so I didn't need as many candy bars. If you want a thicker brownie, put it in a slightly smaller pan and increase baking just a bit.
I used a homemade brownie recipe, which is reflected in the recipe below.
You can use your favorite boxed brownie mix or your favorite homemade brownie mix and adjust the recipe accordingly. Then you don't have to worry yourself about finding Take 5 candy bars. My goal for these brownies is to make a homemade version and layering the pretzels, peanut butter, and caramel so that you get a little bit in every bite. My only complaint? I want more center, the plain bits of brownie just seemed unfair. You get a sweet and salty, gooey and crunchy center surrounded by fudgy brownie. is there a word that means greater than perfection? Because in my perfect dessert world, this is it. They are things that are simply perfect by themselves and just when you think they can't get any better than they already are, someone out there just had to just combine them! Two perfect things together. Two of my favorite things are brownies and Take 5 candy bars. I don't see these around too often anymore and mainly see them around Halloween, so I always buy a them whenever I'm lucky to find them. They were made for the person who craves sweet and salty and they quickly become one of my favorite candy bars. Do you know what Take 5 candy bars are? Apparently not many people I've asked know what these candy bars are! There was a lot of hoopla when these candies came out a long time ago (could it be about ten years?).
