{Almost} Raw Snickers Bars

October 4, 2012 by Cara

The moment you got home right after trick-or-treating was always the highlight of the night, wasn’t it?

Raw Snickers Bars - Fork & Beans

For me, there was no time wasted when I would rush into the living room floor, dump out the sugary loot, and then proceed to divide the candy into 2 piles: the good stash vs. the crappy stuff (which, let’s be honest, was reserved for raisins, Smarties, and anything else not snack-sized candy bars).  I’m not really sure what it is about candy bars that became an obsession for me growing up, but it was definitely there.

Raw Snickers Bars - Fork & Beans

Especially Snickers. Those were the golden children of the stash. They were multi-functional for me: not only were they tasty treats with a salty sweetness that I love so much, but they were also energy boosters, am I right? I had to fish one (or three) out during my trick-or-treating festivities (I mean, come on, I needed energy–that was a lot of walking around!) and I would snack on another one (or several) while counting out my candy (come on, I needed brain power–numbers hurt the mind without chocolate, nougat, and peanuts!). And one wonders why I gained weight as a kid…

Raw Snickers Bars - Fork & Beans

Now if only I had a load of these raw Snickers bad boys in my candy bag! I might have been saved from gaining 10 extra pounds during candy season…

Raw Snickers Bars Recipe

{This recipe is 100% inspired by the genius Isobelle from the former Vgan Jar blog}

{Raw Vegan} Gluten, egg, dairy, refined sugar-free

Makes 16 snack-sized Snickers Bars

INGREDIENTS:

  • Nougat Filling (see below)
  • Caramel (see below)
  • 3/4 c. raw peanuts
  • Recipe for Raw Chocolate (in melted form)

For the Nougat filling:

  • 1/2 c. cashews, soaked for 1-2 hours
  • 1/4 c. macadamia nuts, soaked for 1-2 hours
  • 1/4 c. almond or oat flour
  • 1 date, chopped
  • 2 tsp agave
  • 1 tsp coconut oil, melted
  • dash of vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
  1. Combine everything in a food processor until a smooth dough forms.
  2. With your hands, form the bottom layer for the candy bar. Set on a plate lined with a piece of wax paper.
  3. Refrigerate.

For the Caramel:

  • 12 dates, depitted and chopped
  • 1/3 c. water
  • 6 Tb agave
  • 1 1/2 Tb coconut oil, melted
  1. In a high speed blender, combine all ingredients until completely smooth. Will take about 5 minutes total.

ASSEMBLING DIRECTIONS:

Raw Snickers Bars - Fork & Beans

  1. Combine peanuts and date caramel sauce. Using your hands, place ontop of already formed nougat bottoms.
  2. Freeze for 15 minutes.
  3. Dip each bar into raw chocolate until fully coated. Set back on plate and freeze or chill in the fridge until chocolate has set.
  4. These suckers are melty bad boys so you will want to devour immediately once out of the freezer/fridge.

    Lord, those look delicious. Have to share this story…I’m single and childless so I usually hide out in the back of my house on Halloween. Not that I’m cheap – I just don’t want the temptation of bowls of HFCS candy staring me in the face. My neighbor said she’d bring her kids Trick or Treating about seven and I said, “I don’t *do* Halloween so you might want to skip my house.” About seven, as I was sitting in the dark, the doorbell rang. I went to the door and there was my neighbor with her kids and about a dozen more, all holding up a piece of candy for me. (Now, granted, nobody offered a Snickers…it was all the last choice candy, but still….) I was so charmed by those kids wanting to make a nice Halloween for Mrs. Cranky Pants. Next year, I’ll make a platter of GOOD and good-for-you treats for her kids, thanks to wonderful recipes like this one.

    October 18, 2012 at 11:23 pm

    ahhhh so many choices!!! I’m still trying to figure out what to make first its a bit overwhelming! :S Which snicker recipe do you recommend that I try first? Its so hard to pick…. has anyone on this site tried both of her recipes which one would you recommend to try first and why?
    –Thank you!

    • Cara

      October 19, 2012 at 7:36 am

      I’d honestly go with the raw version, Susan πŸ™‚ It’s my favorite because it’s easier to make and it’s healthier! Good luck. xo

        Hi. I just discovered your blog through pinterest and this recipe catched me completely but I have a question, can I use cocoa butter instead of coconut oil?since coconut oil melt too easily specially where I live. Thanks

        • Cara

          October 24, 2016 at 10:09 pm

          You can definitely give it a go and try! Not sure if it will work out 100% but my motto always is, try πŸ™‚ xo Good luck!

    Raw peanuts are not edible. Do you really use raw peanuts in this recipe?

    • Cara

      October 15, 2012 at 9:43 am

      Hi Mara! From what I have learned about “raw” peanuts (I have a health store near me that actually sells them), they are not necessarily in their raw state but dehydrated already. Regardless, I myself have not had an actual raw peanut nor did I use them in this recipe, no. I’m lazy. I just use what’s on hand πŸ™‚ ha.

    October 10, 2012 at 2:36 pm

    I have to confess: Snickers bars are what’s holding me back from being dairy-free, really. I can say bye-bye to milk in pretty much anything except Snickers. I need to try this. Maybe it will be my answer.

    I dream of Snickers.

    • Melissa

      October 19, 2012 at 12:13 pm

      If you want a simple, less healthy fix on the Snickers craving, Go Max Go makes a Jokerz bar that is a vegan version. It even has rice milk chocolate. I like them better than Snickers! I’d like them even more if they used dark chocolate for the coating. You can get them at co-ops, Whole Foods or online at places like Vegan Essentials.

      • Cara

        October 19, 2012 at 9:44 pm

        What a great reference (and much easier too, Melissa!), thank you. I will definitely check this out when I am feeling lazy (which happens to be often) πŸ™‚

    The part after trick-or-treating, where you sort through your candy, was almost as good as trick-or-treating, if not better! I would go out with my cousins and then we would all sit and sort our loot into the good and bad candy. Then we would trade the bad candy, because, as you probably know, one girl’s trash is another girl’s tootsie roll! πŸ˜‰

    I just can’t get over all of your raw treats! I was always a Three Musketeers girl until my teens, when I became a preferably-Milky-Way-but-I’ll-take-Snickers-too kind of girl. If Snickers looked like this, there probably wouldn’t have been a question as to which bar I preferred!

  15. treegeekay

    October 5, 2012 at 1:21 pm

    I haven’t had a Snickers since my kiddie Halloween days! I’m definitely gonna get my hands on these ingredients, ’cause this version looks infinitely more rawesome. Your MOFO posts so far have rawked– looking forward to more of them! πŸ˜€

  16. Heather

    October 5, 2012 at 12:02 pm

    first you make Justins favorite candy treat and then mine – LOVE YOU GIRL! Hahaha my sister and I would run into the livingroom after trick or treating and sort all our candy – mine was always into piles by candy type- snickers, butterfingers, raisinettes(those went to my mom), then my sister and I would trade ….yes snickers were my downfall – these though look a thousand times better!

    Oh, my gosh!! These look so good! I had to pin them immediately! I totally agree about how underwhelming Smarties were post-trick or treating. They were good for one thing – playing doctor. Whenever someone needed medicine, call in the Smarties. Although, I have to say they were better than Pez. Those didn’t taste like anything. I really think if it weren’t for the cute dispensers, no one would ever buy Pez.

    • Cara

      October 5, 2012 at 10:04 am

    PS I’m a ditz who just said I should ‘bake’ another batch when these require NO BAKING. D’ohhhh. That’s the beauty (and curse of them), they are ready, like zero waiting πŸ™‚

  20. jennnnnnnn

    October 5, 2012 at 8:21 am

    I made your other Snicker’s bars recipe (which is similar just not as raw I think), and I doubt I’ll ever make them again…BECAUSE I SAT THERE AND ATE THE ENTIRE BATCH ON THE SPOT. But they are a million times better than ‘real’ Snicker’s and now I’m thinking maybe I should bake another batch and then bake them into cookies (my grandma always makes them, but imagine how they’d be with a mini homemade Snicker’s in the middle?? OFF THE ZOMBIE HOOK). <3

    • Cara

      October 5, 2012 at 8:34 am

      Is this who I think it is?????? πŸ™‚ And did you just say you were going to bake them into COOKIES? I am hoping that following that sentence, you forgot to write: “and I’m coming to California to hand-delivery a batch to you!”

    • Cara

      October 5, 2012 at 8:42 am

      Hi Sarina! At least if you do devour all of them, you are just eating cashews, raw cacao, coconut oil and a little agave πŸ™‚ Not too shabby for a candy bar binge…xo

    October 5, 2012 at 2:44 am

    wonder why the i-cream-snowglobes have a more silky coat than this one, does it base on the way you cook the chocolate?

    • Cara

      October 5, 2012 at 8:31 am

      They look different before the ice cream Snickers are not raw–the chocolate is from vegan chocolate chips, melted with coconut oil. The chocolate here is a 3-ingredient homemade chocolate that is meltier and more fragile πŸ™‚

    Peanut butter cups were the most hotly contested trick or treat candies in my house growing up– which is funny because I can take or leave chocolate and pb together as an adult.

    There is an amazing amount of yucky Halloween candy out there. Not sure what that’s about. Extremely hard pink gum that tastes good for two seconds and then immediately tastes like rotten socks. Taffies, hard candies, and basically anything that’s not candy corn, tootsie rolls, and fun size candy bars. And these bars look pretty darn fun!

      First of all, that hard pink gum is delicious! Secondly, Tootsie rolls would be in my crap pile. This, however, is what would make us GREAT trick-or-treating partners in crime. The candy exchange would be full of ease and painless.

    These look incredible, but entirely too complicated for me. That means you need to start a delivery service STAT. While you’re getting on that, I’ll add that Snickers were a good find when I was younger, but I also liked Baby Ruth and the boxes of Milk Duds (despite the fact there were only like three Milk Duds in there.)

    I actually wasn’t into candy that much though (gasp) so I tried to leverage trades for other things like doing my chores or whatever. I wasn’t that successful.

      Omg best idea. I would pay for these to be kver nighted to me. Me +baby = chaos in the kitchen and tornado looking messes. Lol

    As a kid, I would trade out the snickers for stuff I actually liked. And I was ok with the smarties – they were better than that nasty hard candy with the gum inside! (Un)fortunately, my college roommate corrected my aversion to snickers so I could be a *little* more normal.

      Bummer we weren’t friends back in the day. I would have given you my Smarties for your Snickers πŸ™‚
