Homemade Snickers Bars- Recipes My Mom Gave Me

My Mom never made these bars.  Now, mind you, she adored a snickers candy bar, but, this recipe I actually found over 10 years ago.  It was way back when I first started blogging and quickly became a family favorite.

This recipe is quite easy to make, but, does take a little time to put them together.  They are also quite rich, eat in small quantities, if at all possible.  😉

Ingredients Needed

  • Chocolate chips
  • Peanut butter
  • Marshmallow Fluff
  • Peanuts
  • Evaporated milk
  • Butter
  • Sugar
  • Vanilla
  • Caramels
  • Whipping cream

Homemade Snickers Bars- Recipes My Mom Gave Me

Recipe Notes:

  • Be sure to let each layer cool completely before moving on to the next layer.  This will prevent your bars from mushing all together.
  • Keep any leftovers in the refrigerator.  If desired, you can freeze these bars.  I do recommend cutting them into pieces before you do this.  Simply store them in a covered, freezer safe, storage bag or container. 

What Kind Of Caramels?

I used Brach's Milk Maid Caramels.  They worked perfectly.  You can use any brand equivalent. 

Marshmallow Fluff:
