Frozen Healthy Snickers
Ingredients:
For the Nougat Layer:
- 1 cup dates, pitted
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
For the Caramel Layer:
- 1 cup Medjool dates, pitted
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond butter
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
For the Peanut Layer:
- 1 cup roasted unsalted peanuts
For the Chocolate Coating:
- 1 cup dark chocolate, melted
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions:
- Prepare the Nougat Layer:
- In a food processor, combine dates, almonds, almond butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Process until the mixture comes together and resembles a sticky dough.
- Press into Pan:
- Line a square baking dish with parchment paper. Press the nougat mixture evenly into the bottom of the dish. Place it in the freezer while you prepare the next layer.
- Make the Caramel Layer:
- In the same food processor (no need to clean it), combine dates, almond butter, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Process until smooth.
- Add Peanuts:
- Stir in the roasted peanuts into the caramel mixture.
- Layer Over Nougat:
- Spread the caramel and peanut mixture over the nougat layer in the baking dish. Return it to the freezer and let it set for at least 1-2 hours.
- Chocolate Coating:
- Mix the melted dark chocolate with coconut oil. Remove the dish from the freezer and pour the chocolate mixture over the caramel layer, spreading it evenly.
- Freeze Again:
- Place the dish back in the freezer and let it freeze until the chocolate is set.
- Cut into Bars:
- Once completely frozen, lift the frozen Snickers out of the dish using the parchment paper. Place it on a cutting board and cut into bars.
- Serve:
- Keep the bars stored in the freezer. When ready to eat, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly.
