Nut Free Healthy Snickers Bars

Nut Free Healthy Snickers Bars

Nut Free Snickers Bars with a healthier twist are full of sweet chocolatey flavor, gooey date “caramel,” with a salty endnote. Made with just 6 ingredients, this no bake desserts will satisfy your sweet tooth while low in added sugar. 

Ingredients

Scale

1 ½ cup soft dates (if dates are not soft, soak in water)

¼ cup No Added Sugar SunButter

3 tablespoons warm water

¼ cup sunflower seeds

2/3 cup mini chocolate chips

1 teaspoon coconut oil

Flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. In a high-powered food processor or blender (I find a food processor works better), pulse soft dates, SunButter, and warm water until a paste-like consistency forms. The dates will probably form into a ball in the food processor, so scrape down the sides of the canister and continue to pulse until smooth.
  2. Transfer the date mixture to a bowl and mix in sunflower seeds.
  3. With wet hands, form the date mixture into a log-like shape and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. It will be very sticky. Freeze for 15 minutes.
  4. Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in the microwave. Microwave for 30 seconds, mix together, then continue microwaving in 30 second intervals until completely melted and smooth.
  5. Cover the date “logs” with melted chocolate. Generously sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Return to the freezer until chocolate hardens, about 15 minutes.

Notes

Store in freezer for optimal caramel-like consistency.
