Payday Candy Bar Squares (using cake mix)
Recipe By : Annette Newman

1 box yellow cake mix
1 egg -- beaten
1/3 cup butter -- melted and cooled
3 cups miniature marshmallows
1/4 cup butter
2/3 cup corn syrup
12 ounces peanut butter chips
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups salted peanuts
2 cups rice crispies

Mix together cake mix, egg, and 1/3 cup butter and press into ungreased 9x13 inch pan. Bake at 350 for 10 to 15 minutes. While hot, pour miniature marshmallows on top. (I put mine bake in the rack of oven for a minute to soften.) In a small saucepan combine 1/4 c. butter, corn syrup, and peanut butter chips, heating until smooth and stirring constantly, then add vanilla, rice crispies, and peanuts. Pour this mixture over cake and let cool. Cut into squares.
