INGREDIENTS

Ingredient List	50g thick cream
1 & Half cups/20 no.s biscuits	220g Semi-sweet Chocolate
2 tbsp Sugar	1 cup Whipped cream
4 tbsp Butter, melted	1 tbsp Butter
110 g Cream Cheese	½ cup Peanuts, salted
½ cup Peanut Butter
½ cup Powdered Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla essence
200g Thick cream
1 ½ tbsp. Butter
220g Chewy Caramel

METHOD

Line a rectangular baking /Pyrex tray of about 11x7.5 inch with melted butter.

Crush biscuits in a food processor along with sugar until it is finely crushed. Then pop in butter and process again for a few seconds.

Transfer mixture to the tray and pat into an even layer using the bottom of a measuring cup or palm. Freeze this for about 15 minutes.

Bake this pan until the crust is firm to touch or for 8-10 minutes at 160C/320F.

Let it cool at room temperature and then refrigerate for about 15 minutes.

For peanut & cheese layer:- Take cheese in another bowl.

Mix in peanut butter , sugar and vanilla in a  blender or with hand.

Fold in 200 g of thick cream into it.

Pour this mixture on top of the biscuit layer. Refrigerate until it sets; for about a minimum of 20 minutes.

For caramel layer:- Microwave or double boil caramels, butter and cream (50g) until it melts and turn into a smooth cream. Keep on stirring while melting.

Pour this on top of the peanut cream.

Spread chopped peanuts on top of this layer.

Refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes or until it sets.

For ganache layer:- Take chocolate chips/chunks in a bowl.

Heat cream until you see bubbles on the sides of the pan. Take it out and pour over the chocolates. Mix nicely until you get smooth ganache. Pop in a tbsp. of butter and mix well. Let it cool .

Layer this ganache on top of the caramel layer.

Garnish with peanuts, snickers or peanut/chocolate chips.

TIPS/VARIATION

For biscuits, you can use Oreo, Marie, Digestive, Graham crackers etc.

This dessert is deliciously sweet. You can cut down a little bit sweetness by substituting unsweetened whipped cream instead of ganache.  In that case , garnish with chocolate syrup and chocolate flakes. You can otherwise cut down the sugar added in peanut & cheese cream layer.

When microwaving caramels, stir between every 30 seconds.

I used ‘tiffany cream fudge’ for caramel layer.

Wraps are better and healthier option than traditional snacks since they are not deep-fried. Chicken fajita rolls give you the tanginess and spiciness you need  with your cup of tea. It could be served as a wholesome meal too. Make sure to use fresh and crispy salads in your wraps. The mayonnaise dip, spiced with paprika and cumin, is perfect for wraps,fries or as a spread for sandwiches.
