Sugar-Free Snickers Bar

What’s in a Snickers bar?

Consisting of carefully crafted layers of nougat, caramel, and peanuts, a classic Snickers bar is comprised of:

• Nougat
• Caramel
• Peanuts
• Chocolate

Here are the ingredients: sugar, glucose syrup, milk solids, cocoa mass, vegetable fat, cocoa butter, salt, soy lecithin, egg whites, and vanilla extract. With a plethora of ingredients, many of which don’t align with keto standards,

According to the official Mars, Inc. nutrition facts, one Snickers bar (2.07 oz or 59g) contains approximately 33 grams of carbohydrates, including 24 grams of sugar and 3 grams of fiber.

While a single Snickers bar may appear to be high in carbohydrates, its impact on ketosis is likely overstated. A small serving size of the candy bar contains approximately 30 grams of carbohydrates, which is roughly the amount found in a medium-sized apple.

Fortunately, this homemade rendition replaces refined sugar with its natural sweetness, preserving the signature flavors of a classic Snickers bar.

Crafting Homemade Snickers Bars: A Simplified Guide

To create sugar-free versions of classic Snickers bars, simply follow this straightforward process. Here’s how it’s done:

1. Whisk the egg whites until they reach a tender peak stage, followed by the addition of xanthan gum, vanilla essence, and Steviva Blend. Slowly whisk in the whey protein powder. In a distinct saucepan, carefully melt the butter while concurrently combining it with additional Steviva Blend and a generous amount of heavy cream. Combining the two mixtures, slowly pour them into the whisked egg whites, stirring gently to incorporate the creamy peanut butter and crunchy peanuts.
2. Line a 7×11-inch baking dish with parchment paper or waxed paper, ensuring an even layer, before spreading the peanut caramel mixture uniformly throughout.
3. Allow the mixture to chill in the refrigerator for a minimum of one hour to achieve the desired consistency.
4. As the water simmers beneath, combine sugar-free chocolate chips and creamy peanut butter in a heatproof bowl, stirring constantly until they meld into a velvety smooth union.
5. As soon as the caramel layer has sufficiently cooled and firmed up, proceed to drizzle the melted chocolate over its surface, ensuring a smooth and even distribution.
6. After refrigerating the bars for an additional hour, allow them to set before cutting them into neat squares.

 Utilize a hot, wet knife to effortlessly slice through the chocolate coating, minimizing the risk of it cracking.

After devouring the entire bag of Snickers bars in one sitting? Zero. After politely savoring each bite and saving a few for later? A satisfying handful still remain.

This recipe yields 35 delicious squares, ensuring you’ll have an ample supply to enjoy and share with friends.

To preserve their texture and flavor, it’s recommended to store sugar-free Snickers bars in an airtight container at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. If you live in a humid climate or plan to store them for an extended period, consider keeping them in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.

Store Snickers bars in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to two weeks to maintain their freshness. Freeze them for extended storage, but ensure they’re properly thawed in the refrigerator prior to serving.
