Ingredients
- For the crust:
1 cup superfine almond flour
3 tablespoons granulated stevia/erythritol blend
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 pinch sea salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup butter cut into large pieces
- For the caramel/peanut mixture:
1/4 cup butter cut into large pieces
1/4 cup Vitafiber IMO Syrup
1/4 cup granulated stevia/erythritol blend
2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon sea salt (optional)
2 cups peanuts
- For the chocolate topping:
3 ounces stevia-sweetened dark chocolate chopped
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
Directions
- For the crust:
- Preheat the oven to 375º Fahrenheit. Grease an 8″ X 8″ baking pan with oil of choice.
- In a food processor, pulse together the almond flour, granulated stevia/erythritol blend, baking soda, and sea salt. Add the vanilla extract and the butter. Process until mixture sticks together to form a dough.
- Press the dough mixture into the prepared pan.
- Bake the cookie layer in the preheated oven until the top is slightly brown in the center. Allow cooling completely.
- For the caramel/peanut mixture:
- Heat butter, Vitafiber IMO, and granulated stevia/erythritol blend in a 1 1/2 to 2-quart saucepan over medium heat stirring frequently. When the mixture comes to a simmer, add a candy thermometer. When mixture reaches 250º Fahrenheit, stir in the whipping cream. The mixture will foam up.
- Bring the mixture back to 250º Fahrenheit. Remove from heat and add the vanilla extract, sea salt, and peanuts. Immediately spread the mixture over the cookie crust. Allow cooling completely in the refrigerator before going on to the next step.
- Loosen the edges of the baking dish with a knife or spatula. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into 12 bars.
- For the chocolate topping:
- Place chocolate, coconut oil, and heavy whipping cream in a small saucepan. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth.
- Spread the chocolate evenly over the tops of the bars. Allow cooling before serving. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
- First of all, I need to warn you that these bars disappear quickly. I made the mistake of making the first batch of these bars right before my husband and I went out of town. We were only going to be gone for less than 24 hours, so I put them in the fridge to enjoy when I returned.
- Unfortunately, I returned to an empty container. Yep, my son had eaten them all. I was seriously disappointed because I had been thinking on the whole drive home about enjoying a low-carb Snickers bar with a cup of tea. It’s a good thing I needed to tweak the recipe and make another batch anyway.
- In my house, I need to hide these bars if I want to get a single one for myself. I’ve found that putting them in a covered container in the fridge, then hiding the container under a few bags of lettuce usually does the trick.
- This recipe for Homemade Snickers Bars will satisfy that sweet tooth without destroying your diet. Enjoy!
