How do I make these Snickers Brookies?

There are three parts that you need to make to bring this fudgy dessert mash up together-brownie batter, a peanut caramel sauce and cookie batter.

Cookie layer

1. Cream the room temperature butter, white and brown sugar together.
2. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mix until combined.
3. Add the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt. Use a spatula to fold into the wet ingredients.
4. Fold in the chocolate chips.
5. Cover the bowl with cling film and chill in the fridge until ready to use.

Peanut caramel filling

1. Melt the soft caramels on a low heat until melted.
2. Add 1/4 cup double cream mix until combined then add the peanuts.
3. Remove from the heat, but leave in the sauce pan.

Brownies

1. Line a 20x20cm brownie tin with baking paper.
2. Melt the dark chocolate and butter in the microwave, 20 secs at a time. Mix together, make sure the melted chocolate and butter are well combined. This stops the brownies batter from splitting. Set aside to cool for 5-10 mins.

4. Fold in the slightly cooled melted chocolate and butter mix with a spatula.
