Snickers, Homemade

snickers-homemade

This recipe is Dad approved. He is addicted to these things so I was more than happy to whip some up that were homemade where I could control the quality/quantity. I also figured that there could be a million things that could be done to spruce up this classic candy bar, including but not limited to salting the caramel and infusing the chocolate with a hit of coffee {both instances to enhance the flavor} but I managed to make bars that were pretty darn close to the classic without tampering with them too much.

Serves: 12-15 Bars

Ingredients
Base chocolate layer
  • 1¼ c bittersweet chocolate
  • ¼ c peanut butter
  • 1 c roasted/salted peanuts
Nougat layer
  • 1 c sugar
  • 3 tb whole milk
  • 3 tb unsalted butter
  • ¼ c peanut butter
  • 7 oz marshmallow fluff
  • 1 ts vanilla
Caramel layer
  • 14 oz caramel
  • 2 tb cream
Top chocolate layer
  • 1½ c bittersweet chocolate
  • ¼ c peanut butter

Instructions
  1. Melt together the chocolate and peanut butter. Pour into a greased/lined pan. Sprinkle a layer of nuts over it. Refrigerate between each layer.
  2. To create the nougat, cook sugar, milk, and butter for about 5 minutes. Stir in the peanut butter, fluff, and vanilla until smooth. Pour over the first chocolate layer.
  3. Melt the caramels with cream and pour over the nougat layer.
  4. Lastly, melt the chocolate and peanut butter for the top layer and spread evenly over everything. {It helps for all the layers to be chilled/stiff}
