Homemade KitKat Bars

Thanks to everyone who helped celebrate our third anniversary. I can't believe it has been three years since we opened those doors. Jane and Glenda made goodies for everyone to share.
One of the goodies Jane made was 'Homemade KitKat Bars'. Everyone asked her for the recipe and apparently she snagged the recipe from a Paula Deen magazine. So hre goes the recipe.

Homemade KitKat Bars
Makes about 2 1/2 dozen bars.

75 club crackers
1 cup butter
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup whole milk
1/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
1/2 cup butterscotch-flavored morsels

Line an ungreased 13x9 inch baking pan with 1 layer of crackers, cutting to fit if necessary; set aside.

In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
Add graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, milk, and sugar.
Bring to a boil, and boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. (Begin timing 5 minutes from when you see the first bubbles.)
Remove from heat, and spread half of butter mixture evenly over crackers.
Place another single layer of crackers evenly over butter mixture, cutting to fit if necessary.
Spread remaining butter mixture evenly over crackers.
Top evenly with remaining crackers.

In a small saucepan, combine peanut butter, chocolate morsels, and butterscotch morsels.
Melt over medium-low heat, stirring constantly.
Spread evenly over top of crackers.
Cover, and chill for at least 1 hour.
Cut into bars.
Store in refrigerator.

The title to our layout this week is 'Learning'. The colors are teal, orange, deep red, and cream. There is an apple for my journal spot and an owl embellishment. I used one 4x6 photo and 4 smaller photos on some small tags.

Have a great night and see you tomorrow.
