1/2 cup butter or margarine ( I use butter) 2 cups granulated sugar 2/3 cup evaporated milk dash of salt 12 large marshmallows
1 (6 oz) package cherry chips 1 t pure vanilla extract
1 (12 oz) package chocolate chips 3/4 cup peanut butter ( I use Skippy-extra crunchy) ( I use a little more ) 1 (12 oz) package crushed peanuts
Combine butter or margarine, sugar, milk, salt and marshmallows in saucepan. Bring to a boil then boil for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cherry chips and vanilla. * Pour into a buttered 9 x 13 baking dish and chill for 2 hours.
In a double boiler, melt chocolate chips. Add peanut butter and crushed peanuts. Stir until well blended. Spread evenly over the cherry layer. Chill until firm enough to cut into bite size pieces.
* I lined the 9 x 13 baking dish with aluminum foil (buttered the foil) so that I could lift the candy out of pan when set, that way it would be easier to cut into squares.
