Prepare the caramel sauce
Meanwhile combine caramels and heavy cream in a microwave safe bowl and heat (30 seconds at a time) until melted. Stir to combine.
Reserve 1/2 cup peanuts, sprinkle remaining peanuts over cooled brownie and pour caramel sauce over top, reserving about 2 tablespoons for garnish (if desired). Place in freezer to cool.
Prepare nougat frosting
Meanwhile, combine cream cheese, marshmallow and peanut butter in the bowl of a stand mixer (or in a large bowl with an electric mixer) fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Spread frosting over top of cooled brownie.
Decorate the brownie
Sprinkle remaining Snickers bites over the top of the frosting. Drizzle melted chocolate. Sprinkle with reserved peanuts. Drizzle with reserved caramel. Place in freezer for 20 minutes to set frosting and drizzle or serve immediately.
