Homemade Snickers Bars – this copycat is better than the original! No complicated ingredients which makes it easy and done in 30 minutes! Snicker bars lovers – you have to make them!!
Please, do take time to indulge on the image of gooey caramel of this homemade candy bar version. It is quite incredible you can make it in your own kitchen and quite embarrassing how many squares you will eat afterwards. I simply cannot get over it.
It is a temptation hard to resist. It’s winning (because you made your own candy bar) but losing because you can’t stop eating it.
Then again, you are not making this copycat during your diet (I hope not!) so let’s just forget about the guilt and fully indulge in this decadent treat. Every single layer is absolutely delicious and together they make for one quite genius combo. Peanut butter chocolate bottom and top make for the perfect “packaging”, while nougat (yes, you can make your own nougat with just a few simple ingredients!) with peanuts and a gooey caramel layers create a mouth-watering filling for the bar. Absolutely irresistible!
If Snicker candy bars are your weakness or you know someone who loves them (for me, that would be my Hubby!) – take on this creation and make it! It is a time-consuming project only because there is a few layers made (and a few pots to clean) – but highly worth it! The payoff cannot be beat! Each layer sets as you prepare the next one. The first time I made them, I actually had to stop after the nougat layer to finish my other projects. The beauty of no-bake desserts with layers is that you can stop after any layer and finish when ready. However, if the craving is strong and you want the bars now, you can make them quickly!
These Snicker bars are the best at room temperature because the caramel softens up and becomes gooey. You can store the leftovers in a freezer as you would with any store-bought candy bars. My Husband is crazy about this copycat and that says a lot! Homemade candy bars are so fun to make and incredible in taste. I have a few more recipes coming this holiday season so stay tuned, sweet friends!
Enjoy!

October 22, 2015 at 7:37 amI’d only make these if I had someone to give them to. I know me. I’d eat the whole pan by myself, and I certainly don’t need that (but I’d have fun doing it)!

October 21, 2015 at 7:40 amSo I have seen so many of these copycat butterfinger recipes and they always use the candy corn.. It was hurting my head at the thought of using candy corn and nuking them. Well, Butterfinger is one of the hubby’s favs so I finally broke down and tried them…. I would say they are about a 90% copycat, super easy to make, they even get a crunchy crumbly inner texture. They were amazingly good, and I don’t like chocolate or candy in general, I just bake for the family. Candy corn is now stocked up on during Halloween so the can be made regularly.
