How to Make Homemade Candy Bars
- Line a 13x9 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the finished bars out easily.
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in evaporated milk, graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring constantly. Once boiling, continue to boil for exactly 5 minutes, stirring continuously to prevent burning.
- Remove from heat and pour one-third of the caramel mixture into the prepared pan. Spread evenly.
- Arrange 25 graham crackers evenly over the caramel layer.
- Pour half of the remaining caramel mixture over the crackers, spreading evenly.
- Arrange another 25 graham crackers on top.
- Pour the remaining caramel mixture over the crackers and spread to cover completely.
- Top with the final 25 graham crackers.
- In a separate small saucepan, melt peanut butter and chocolate chips over low heat, stirring until smooth and completely melted.
- Spread the melted peanut butter mixture evenly over the top layer of graham crackers.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until completely firm.
- Lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares and enjoy!
