With Easter right around the corner, I figured I would share these delicious, low carb homemade snickers with you guys to have some healthier options for you guys. I don't about you but we always a bunch of candy around the house these days.

Especially around the holidays.

What better way to avoid temptation than to make a more nutritious "candy bar"? And don't these look absolutely incredible?

You can also make these delicious Low Carb Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups if you have a candy craving.

These snickers bars and the chocolate peanut butter cups taste even better with a cup of my Apple Chai Latte or my Low Carb Bulletproof Hot Chocolate...

Why You Should Make These Homemade Snickers Bars

I always like to prepared for a sweet craving, especially around any of the holidays. We are busier, maybe a little more stressed than usual and we just might be stress eating or eating mindlessly. 

That is exactly why I prepare myself and avoid all of those tempting treats and make a much more healthy version. And man oh man, these homemade snickers did not disappoint.

Even though they look like they took hours and hours to make, I promise you only need a few normal ingredients to make these babies.

Recipe Ingredients

• Sugar free chocolate chips -  I use Lily's Chocolate Chips that are sugar free and sweetened only with stevia and erythritol. You can use whatever you'd like in here.
• Coconut oil -
• Peanut butter
• Monk fruit - I used the liquid form of Monk Fruit for this recipe. You can also substitute with the sugar free alternative of your choice.
• Peanuts - I use dry roasted peanuts for these which means that the ingredients should only say peanuts. When it says regular roasted peanuts that simply means that it was roasted with an oil, usually peanut oil or canola oil. I just want straight peanuts and nothing else.
• Almond flour -  I use the super fine almond flour in all of my baked goods because it lends the lightest, ideal texture, especially in gluten free desserts.

How to Make These Homemade Snickers Bars

Mix all of the ingredients for the base in a medium size mixing bowl.

Transfer the bottom layer mixture to a 8’’ square tray lined with parchment paper and press it down to set. Place it in the freezer while preparing the other layers.

For the filling, whisk peanut butter, Monk fruit, coconut oil and salt until smooth. Pour the filling over the base until it is all covered.

Spread the dry roasted peanuts all over the filling. Place it in the freezer for one hour to harden.

Melt chocolate with coconut oil for 45 seconds in the microwave or until smooth.

I simply drizzled the chocolate on top of these bars but you can also place them completely in the melted chocolate to make sure they are all covered. Do whatever you want, either way they will taste delicious.

I decided to freeze a couple (and hide them from my family) so they will be there waiting for me when my taste comes back.

I used Lily's Sugar Free Chocolate Chips for the topping but ChocZero also makes delicious sugar free chocolate chips as well.

The most difficult part of making this is waiting for them to set in the freezer. It feels WAY longer than it actually is.

I promise it will be worth it.

I highly recommend making a double batch and freezing half for later. You will be so excited that you listened to me.
