Ideal for anyone looking to satisfy their sweet tooth without the carbs, they are easy to make and require no baking, making them a quick and convenient snack option.


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
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chopped salted peanuts


Instructions

  1. Mix the base layer: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the unsweetened peanut butter, coconut flour, and sweetener. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well-combined, forming a thick dough-like consistency.
  2. Prepare the pan: Line a small loaf pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the bottom of the pan, ensuring a firm and uniform layer.
  3. Freeze to set the base: Place the loaf pan in the freezer for 15-20 minutes. This step helps the base layer to firm up and become easier to work with for the next stage.
  4. Melt the chocolate topping: In a separate bowl, combine the sugar-free chocolate chips and coconut oil. Gently melt them together over a double boiler or in short bursts in the microwave, stirring continuously until smooth and glossy. Add vanilla extract and stir well to incorporate.
  5. Assemble the bars: Remove the pan from the freezer and pour the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the firm peanut butter base. Spread gently to cover the entire surface.
  6. Add the nuts: Sprinkle the chopped salted peanuts evenly over the chocolate layer to add crunch and flavor.
  7. Final freeze: Return the pan to the freezer and chill for 1-2 hours until the bars are fully set and firm enough to slice.
  8. Slice and serve: Once set, remove the bars from the pan using the parchment paper, slice into 8 equal bars, and enjoy your low-carb Snickers bars as a delightful snack.

Notes

  • Use any preferred low-carb sweetener if you don’t have Swerve.
  • The coconut flour helps to absorb moisture and maintain firmness, but you can adjust slightly to get the right dough consistency.
  • Keep the bars refrigerated or frozen to maintain their shape and texture.
  • For extra flavor, lightly toast the chopped peanuts before adding them on top.
  • These bars are best consumed within a week for optimal freshness.
