Salted Nut Roll Bars

For the base -

1 lb nutter butter cookies, coarsely crumbled

1 stick butter, melted

For the Topping-

2 cups peanut butter chips

2/3 cup light corn syrup

1/2 stick butter

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 cups miniature marshmallows

2 cups dry roasted peanuts

2 cup rice Krispies.

2 cups chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 and grease a 9x13 baking pan.

Pulverize cookies in a food processor and add melted butter.  Process until crumbs clumb together.  Press into prepared pan.  Bake 15 minutes, remove from oven.

Melt peanut butter chips, corn syrup, butter and vanilla in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring until smooth, about 5 minutes.

Spread 1/2 cup of the peanut butter mixture over the crumb base and top with marshmallows.  Bake until marshmallows puff up, about 2 minutes, then remove from oven.  Do not let marshmallows brown or they'll turn crunchy.

Toss peanuts and cereal with remaining peanut butter mixture to coat.  Drop spoonfuls of topping over marshmallows and press with a spatula to even out.

Melt 2 cups of chocolate chips and spread over the top[.  Cool completely before cutting and removing from pan.
