Homemade Snickers

Homemade Snickers. What? Yes.
I remember when I was working at Cedar Point (I worked in Camp Snoopy and the Gemini the summer of 2002) and I would walk to the back of the park before it was open to get to the rides I was working. Along the way there were these chocolate bar vending machines which served cold chocolate bars – not frozen, just cold – for a dollar. Oh man, I must have eaten about 30 cold snickers that summer. They were so good.
As you can surly tell, I love snickers. The bonus part, they are gluten free! Okay, let’s get started.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup of chocolate chips
  • 1 cup of peanut butter chips
  • 6 tablespoons of peanut butter
  • 1 container of marshmallow fluff
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon of peanut butter
  • 2 cups of powdered sugar
  • 1 - 1 1/2 cup of salted peanuts
  • a jar of caramel sauce 1 1/2 cups

Instructions

  • Gather all of your ingredients and get ready to go.
  • In a microwave safe container, put in 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips, 1/2 cup of peanut butter chips, and 3 tablespoons of peanut butter. Melt and pour onto a cookie sheet that is line with parchment paper. Place the pan into the fridge or freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Time to make the snickers middle. In your mixer combine the 1/4 cup and 1 tablespoon of peanut butter with the powdered sugar. Then add in the marshmallow fluff. Use your dough hook, it'll work better. Once it's combined it might look a bit crumbly, which is okay.
  • Take out the pan with the chocolate layer and press the dough into it. It may look a bit sloppy, but it'll work.
  • Once that's done, press in the salted peanuts.
  • Then pour the caramel over top.
  • For the topping, do the same thing you did for the bottom layer - in a microwave safe container, put in 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips, 1/2 cup of peanut butter chips, and 3 tablespoons of peanut butter. Melt and pour over top of the caramel.
  • Pop it in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
  • Cut and eat - so good!
