Stir in the flour and salt, mix until a dough forms, and pat the dough in your prepared pan. 3) Use a fork and pierce the surface of the dough, pop it in the oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown, allow to cool. 4) In a microwave safe bowl, add the caramels and cream, melt in a microwave in 30 second intervals until smooth, stir in the peanuts, pour mixture over the crust, slow to cool for just 5 minutes. 5) In a separate microwave bowl, add the butter and chocolate and melt in the microwave same as the caramels.
