For the Snickers Topping:

• 1/2 cup peanuts (roasted and salted)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Brownies:
   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
   • In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
   • In another bowl, whisk together eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and almond milk.
   • Combine the wet and dry ingredients and mix until smooth.
   • Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly.
   • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
   • Let the brownies cool completely.
2. Make the Caramel Layer:
   • In a small saucepan, melt together peanut butter, heavy cream, butter, erythritol, vanilla, and salt over medium heat.
   • Stir until the mixture thickens and is smooth (about 5 minutes).
   • Once thickened, remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
3. Assemble the Snickers Brownies:
   • Once the brownies are fully cooled, spread the caramel mixture over the top.
   • Sprinkle roasted peanuts evenly over the caramel layer.
   • Melt the sugar-free chocolate chips and drizzle over the peanuts.
4. Chill & Serve:
   • Refrigerate the brownies for at least 1 hour to allow the caramel to set and the chocolate to harden.
   • Cut into squares and enjoy your Keto Snickers Brownies!
