Ingredients
Scale
Base Layer
- 1 cup unsweetened peanut butter
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup Swerve sweetener (or any sweetener of choice)
Chocolate Topping
- 1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped salted peanuts
Instructions
- Mix base ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine peanut butter, coconut flour, and sweetener, mixing until well-combined and smooth to form the base mixture.
- Prepare the pan: Line a small loaf pan with parchment paper and press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the bottom, ensuring a compact layer.
- Freeze base layer: Place the pan in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to allow the base to set firmly.
- Melt chocolate topping: In a separate bowl, melt the sugar-free chocolate chips and coconut oil together, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and glossy. Stir in vanilla extract for extra flavor.
- Assemble bars: Remove the pan from the freezer and carefully pour the melted chocolate mixture over the peanut butter layer, spreading evenly.
- Add peanuts: Sprinkle the chopped salted peanuts evenly on top of the melted chocolate layer to add crunch and texture.
- Final freeze: Return the pan to the freezer and chill for 1-2 hours until the bars are fully set and firm.
- Slice and serve: Once set, remove from the pan using the parchment paper, slice into 8 bars, and enjoy your low-carb Snickers bars.
Notes
- Use any low-carb sweetener if Swerve is unavailable.
- Keep bars refrigerated or frozen to maintain firmness.
- For a different nutty flavor, substitute peanuts with almonds or pecans.
- Optional: Add a pinch of salt to the base mixture if you prefer a saltier contrast.
