Ingredients
Scale
Base Layer
- 1 cup unsweetened peanut butter
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup Swerve sweetener (or any sweetener of choice)
Topping
- 1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped salted peanuts
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Mix Peanut Butter Base: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the unsweetened peanut butter, coconut flour, and Swerve sweetener. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients form a uniform, well-combined dough-like mixture.
- Prepare Pan: Line a small loaf pan with parchment paper for easy removal and press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the bottom of the pan, creating a flat base layer.
- Freeze Base: Place the loaf pan in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes to allow the peanut butter base to firm up and set.
- Melt Chocolate Topping: In a separate bowl, melt the sugar-free chocolate chips together with the coconut oil, stirring continuously until smooth and thoroughly combined.
- Assemble Bars: Remove the pan from the freezer and gently pour the melted chocolate mixture over the set peanut butter base, spreading evenly.
- Add Peanuts: Sprinkle the chopped salted peanuts evenly over the melted chocolate layer to add crunch and texture.
- Freeze to Set: Return the assembled pan to the freezer and chill for 1 to 2 hours until the bars are fully set and firm enough to slice.
- Slice and Serve: Once completely firm, slice the frozen block into 8 individual Snickers bars and enjoy your low-carb, sugar-free treat.
Notes
- Use parchment paper for easy removal and to prevent sticking.
- Swerve sweetener can be replaced with any low-carb sweetener of your choice.
- Make sure to chop the peanuts finely to distribute evenly on top.
- Store the bars in the freezer or refrigerator to keep them firm.
- Allow the bars to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before eating if you prefer a softer texture.
