HEALTHY HOMEMADE ALTERNATIVE FOR SNICKERS

HEALTHY HOMEMADE ALTERNATIVE FOR SNICKERS

Those Healthy Snickers Bars will cut your cravings for sweets, I am pretty sure. They are just good for you, because they are made with only 6 plant based ingredients.

I am a huge fun of making everything by myself that is why I do not even buy candy. I would prefer to make my own candies, where I do know what I will use for making them. The great fact about those bars is that there’s no preservatives, artificial colors, or any unhealthy ingredients. Because I used healthy ingredients, after eating the bar I was feeling full as I ate whole meal and I did not feel that I want to eat more. Sometimes, when you will start eat store-bought candy you just eat more and more. One cookie, another…In this case, I did not even eat whole bar, because it was just too much.

Just try it out.  They are addicting in the best way possible.

Ingredients:

First layer:

1 cup of almond butter

1 cup of coconut flour

2 tablespoons of agave syrup

2 tablespoons of cocoa

Second layer:

1 cup of peanut crunchy butter

⅓ cup of melted coconut oil

2 tablespoons of agave syrup

Dark chocolate 70-90%

Directions:

  1. In the pan, warm the almond butter up and add 2 tablespoons of agave syrup. Add one cup of coconut flour and 2 tablespoons of cocoa.
  2. Make a dough and spread it out in square baking dish or flat pan.
  3. Leave it in the freezer for 10 min.
  4. In the meantime, make a second layer. In the pan warm the peanut butter up. Add 1/3 cup of melted coconut oil and 2 tablespoons of syrup.
  5. Take the pan out of the freezer. Spread the second mixture on the dough and put in the freezer for 1 hour until firm.
  6. Remove the frozen “filling” from its container, then use a sharp knife to cut it into bar-sized pieces.
  7. Return these to the freezer while you melt your chocolate.
  8. Melt your chocolate using either a double boiler or the microwave. If you choose to use the microwave, place your chocolate pieces in a wide bowl (so the candy bars will fit along the base) and microwave at 30 seconds intervals, stirring in between. Once the chocolate is 75% melted, stop microwaving and stir the mixture with a spatula until completely melted.
  9. Moving quickly, place 1 candy bar into the bowl of melted chocolate. Use two forks to “flip” the bar, until it is coated in chocolate on all sides.
  10. Remove the bar from the melted chocolate, letting any excess chocolate drip off.
  11. Then, place it onto a plate lined with parchment paper. Repeat with the remaining bars
  12. Place the bars in the fridge for 5-10 minutes, to allow the chocolate to harden.

Keep the bars in the fridge. Just before eating, let the bars thaw for 5 minutes.

Enjoy!
