My absolute favorite candy bar is a Take 5, so that was the inspiration for these bars. Though they are a little time consuming, the end result is oh so sweet, salty & super good...

Ingredients
  • 2 cups crushed pretzels
  • 1 cup melted butter
  • 1 cup reduced fat peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup evaporated milk
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1 jar caramel topping

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Combine pretzels & butter in the bottom of a 9X13 non stick pan & bake for 9 minutes (or until pretzels begin to brown slightly). Meanwhile, combine peanut butter, powdered sugar & salt. Microwave on high for 1 minute so that mixture is smooth.
  3. Pour the peanut butter over the pretzels & spread carefully until evenly covered. Chill for an hour or until peanut butter has hardened.
  4. Next, whisk (constantly) the evaporated milk & eggs in a medium sauce pan over medium-low heat until it thickens (do NOT boil).
  5. Place chopped chocolate in a medium sized bowl & slowly add in the hot milk mixutre. Stir until chocolate is melted & smooth.
  6. Chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours or until the chocolate layer has had time to cool & firm up.
  7. Before serving drizzle with caramel topping (per taste).
