Instructions

Mix the Base Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the unsweetened peanut butter, coconut flour, and sweetener. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated and form a consistent mixture.
Prepare the Pan: Line a small loaf pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the bottom of the pan, ensuring a flat and compact base layer.
Freeze the Base: Place the loaf pan in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to allow the base layer to firmly set.
Melt the Chocolate Topping: In a separate bowl, melt the sugar-free chocolate chips along with the coconut oil, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Add vanilla extract and mix well.
Assemble the Bars: Remove the loaf pan from the freezer and pour the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the set peanut butter base.
Add Peanuts: Sprinkle the chopped salted peanuts evenly on top of the melted chocolate layer to add a crunchy texture.
Final Freeze: Return the loaf pan to the freezer and allow the bars to set for 1-2 hours, or until the chocolate topping is firm.
Slice and Serve: Once fully set, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper. Slice into 8 bars and enjoy your low-carb Snickers treat!

Notes

For best results, use a sugar-free sweetener like Swerve to keep the bars low-carb.
You can substitute salted peanuts with unsalted if you prefer less salt.
Store the bars in the freezer to keep them firm and fresh.
If coconut oil is solid at room temperature, warm slightly to melt before mixing with chocolate chips.
Adjust the sweetener quantity to taste, especially if using sweeter or less sweet options.
