Holiday Tasting Party Recipes

RECIPE NAME: ALMOST A CANDY BAR

INGREDIENTS:
1 tube (16-1/2 oz) refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
4 nutty s'mores trail mix bars (1.23 oz each), chopped
1 pkg. (11 oz.) butterscotch chips
2-1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
1 cup chopped walnuts
1-1/2 cups miniature pretzels
1 pkg. (10 oz.) peanut butter chips
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1 pkg. (11-1/2 oz) milk chocolate chips

HOW TO MAKE THIS:
Let dough stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften. In a large bowl, combine dough and trail mix bars. Press into an ungreased 13-in x 9-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Sprinkle with butterscotch chips and marshmallows. Bake 3-4 minutes longer or until marshmallows begin to brown. Sprinkle with walnuts; arrange pretzels over the top. In a small saucepan, melt the peanut butter chips, corn syrup and butter; spoon over bars. In a small microwave safe bowl, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Transfer to a small plastic bag; cut a hole in a corner of the bag. Drizzle chocolate over bars. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm before cutting.
