INGREDIENTS
-
1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
-
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
-
1 egg
-
20 miniature peanut butter cups, chopped
-
2 tablespoons cornstarch
-
1 (12 ounce) jar caramel ice cream topping
-
1/4 cup peanut butter
-
1/2 cup salted peanuts
-
TOPPING:
-
1 (16 ounce) container milk chocolate frosting

1/2 cup chopped salted peanuts
DIRECTIONS
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the dry cake mix, butter and egg; beat until no longer crumbly, about 3 minutes. Stir in the peanut butter cups. Press into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 18-22 minutes or until lightly browned.
-
Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine cornstarch, caramel topping and peanut butter until smooth. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a boil, about 25 minutes. Cook and stir 1-2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat; stir in peanuts. Spread evenly over warm crust. Bake 6-7 minutes longer or until almost set. Cool completely on a wire rack. Spread with frosting; sprinkle with peanuts. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before cutting. Store in the refrigerator.
