Salted Nut Rolls


1 yellow cake mix
2/3 cup cold butter
1 egg
3 ½ cups miniature marshmallows
12 oz. peanut butter chips
2/3 cup Karo syrup
¼ cup butter
1 tsp. vanilla
Salted peanuts

Preheat oven to 325°.

Pour cake mix into large mixing bowl.  Cut in cold butter with a pastry cutter; mixture will be crumbly.  Add egg and mix.  Spread on jellyroll pan and bake for 10 – 12 minutes, should be VERY light with a few golden spots.  While keeping pan in the oven, spread marshmallows evenly over the top and bake for 5 more minutes.  Let cool.

In microwavable bowl, combine chips, Karo, and butter.  Slowly melt in microwave for up to 3 minutes, stirring after each 30 seconds to a minute (watch closely as chips can burn).  Add vanilla, mix and spread on top of cooled marshmallow cake.  Press salted peanuts into mixture (can leave partially without nuts for those who don’t like them).

Refrigerate overnight to set.
