SNICKERS PUDDING

As tasty as they are beautiful, with rich and decadent layers- from peanuts to cream, crunchy biscuits to luscious chocolate- for the most memorable and delicious dessert.



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.
chewy caramels that I used

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.
