If you are dieting right now to fit into that favorite summer outfit, or look better in your swimsuit, you need to leave this post immediately! There is nothing healthy, or good for you in these bars. Just oh so good….
By far, Snickers are my favorite candy bar, so when I first saw this recipe, I knew I had to make them. Me oh my…..
They are rich, gooey, salty and 100% completely indulgent. Sounds like the perfect snack for me before I head to the gym 🙂
Don’t you just want to dive right into that pool of chocolate, peanut butter and peanuts?

1/2 C salted peanuts, chopped coarsely

4 (2.07 oz) Snickers bars, sliced into 1/4″ slices

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and lightly spray a 9×13 pan. In your electric mixer with a paddle attachment, beat the butter, sugar and vanilla for 1 minute until creamy.

To make the filling, whisk in a medium bowl the eggs, sugar, corn syrup, butter, vanilla and salt until combined. Cover the top of the baked crust with an even layer of Snickers slices, leaving about 1/4″ between slices. Pour the filling mixture over the crust and bake for 35 – 40 minutes, or until set. The filling should not wiggle when you shake the pan. Cool for 30 minutes.

Spread the peanut butter in an even layer on top of the filling. Sprinkle on the chopped peanuts in an even layer. Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir then microwave for another 30 seconds. Drizzle the top with chocolate and refrigerate until completely cold, about 2 hours.
