Nougat, peanuts and caramel sandwiched between two chocolate layers, these homemade snickers bars come together in 30 minutes tops! Faster than going to the store to buy some! 
Yes, I did it! I made my own snickers bars! And you should too! They are just ah-mazing!
I love Snickers bars! We have a history since way back in high school. They were my BFF’s during mid-term and final exams. I would keep a few to snack on late at night while studying for the tests.
I loved the combination of nougat, caramel, and peanuts… not to mention the chocolate coat!
I have seen versions of homemade snickers for about a year now, popping up in my Pinterest feed but all of them took a whole day to make.
Make the chocolate layer – chill
Make the nougat – refrigerate for few hours
Pour the caramel layer – refrigerate some more
Another chocolate layer and back in the fridge
I don’t know about you, but I do not have that much patience!
I’ve been brainstorming, trying to figure out where I can cut corners to make my own snickers bars faster without compromising the taste.
And I finally figured it!
Now you can make your own snickers bars in 30 minutes tops!

Hi Roxana!
Just a quick question:
What kind of caramels are needed? Hard candy caramels or soft caramels or could Hershey’s caramel sauce even work? Please let me know! I can’t wait to try this recipe!!
Hi Hannah,
I use soft caramels. You can either use the ones from Kraft or Werther’s Original Baking Caramel. They both will work.
Roxana
There is no recipe.

Oh this is a weekend must try!!! Snickers is my favorite candy bar, thanks Roxana for share :)!
Holy moly, you’ve made my dreams come true!

I don’t eat snickers, but these bars look too good to pass up! Thanks for the recipe!
You are my hero! Girl, these are out of control!
These bars look incredible, Roxana! Love the layers!
These look so amazing, Roxana. I wish I had one right now!
I am not a huge fan of candy just as candy but if I had to pick a favorite candy bar Snickers would be it. And these bars look way better than the candy bar. I want one!!

Geez, Roxana. How do you get these super clean cuts and pictures?! They’re always so darn perfect! I don’t know if anyone has ever told you this, but you’re really the Queen of Bars. When I think of bars, I think of you.
Delicious! Delicious! I’ve found you from Showcase Your Talent Thursday Linky Party – I pinned yours 🙂 Thank you for sharing this!
Do these keep firm at room temp?
Hi Christine,
The snickers don’t require refrigeration unless you want to keep them for longer than 1 day.
And to answer your question, no, they don’t turn all mushy if kept at room temperature. They hold their shape quite well.
Roxana
These look amazing!!! I will definitely have to make these this holiday season they family will love these and I love the fact that they are homemade! Snickers are one of my favorite candy bars and these look so yummy! Pinning!
I have been drooling over these all week – amazing!
I love snickers! They are my favorite candy bar and now I can make them as often I would like…Thanks Roxana and enjoy a great weekend 🙂

Hello Roxann , an Aussie here who also luvs green – my favourite colour !
Your recipe looks devine but not sure of a few ingredients. Is the
“confectioners powdered sugar” the same as “icing sugar”?
Also what is “marshmallow fluff” ? Would this be similar to the toasting marshallows ?
Are “semi sweet chocolates” dark chocolates?
Sorrry bout all the questions but ingredients differ in Australia and i am eager to try your recipe ut.
keep cooking !
Michelle
Hi Michelle,
I do not know exactly the Aussie names for the ingredients I used in the recipe, but I will try to clarify
“confectioners powdered sugar” is also named powder sugar or icing sugar http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powdered_sugar
Marshmallow fluff is not toasted marshmallows. I don’t think you can find it anywhere but in the US. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshmallow_creme
You can make it at home if you want. http://www.chow.com/recipes/30296-homemade-marshmallow-creme
Semi sweet chocolate is not dark chocolate. Dark chocolate is unsweetened while the semi-sweet, just like the name suggests has some sugar added to it
It sure looks like you just took the top picture from Imperial Sugar’s website, cropped it, and then put you website name on it like it was your own picture. Not cool.
Hi Missy,
Thanks for your concern.
I did not steal the photo from Imperial Sugar website. At the bottom of the recipe on the Imperial Sugar website it says
IMPERIAL SUGAR INSIGHT
Recipe developed for Imperial Sugar by Roxana Yawgel at Roxana’s Home Baking.
I was the one taking the photos to use on both my blog and their website.
Classy response. Thanks for the clarification and I apologize for the accusation!
Hi Roxana,
I made these and my family loved them! One question- my fluff layer came out with a very weird texture- very crumbly. It tasted great but I was wondering how you got it to a soft dough consistency. I followed the recipe – any suggestions? Also- my chocolate layer seemed to keep sliding off when they were cut in squares. Do yours? Thank for sharing the recipe-they are really good!
Hi lori,
I’m sorry to hear you had trouble with these bars.
The marshmallow layer needs to be knead until it’s not crumbly anymore. The heat from your hands helps the process.
As for the top chocolate layer, mine did not slid off. I wonder why yours did.
would it be possible to make these and ship them?
It depends where/how far is your destination. Overnight will work, 3-4 days in the mail may not
Hello! I’m making these right now! My chocolate base is in the freezer still hardening and my nougat is just made. buuuuut I may have a problem! I bought “heavy whipping cream” is that much different than “whipping cream”? Would I be able to use the heavy whipping cream or would that totally change it to more of a whipped carmel?! I can’t get to the store right now ahh! I accidentally bought the wrong one! So excited to see how these turn out 🙂
Hi Victoria,
When cooking with cream there’s no difference between heavy whipping cream and whipping cream. Both will work just as fine.
The only time you need to be worry is when a recipe calls for the cream to be whipped. One will whip to firm peaks the other one won’t.
Hope you enjoyed the bars,
Roxana
These look great but when I clicked on the recipe link it took me to a website for diabetes which I found rather offensive. Tempt me with sugar and then show me a website about diabetes…
Hi Kate,
I’m so sorry to hear that. I don’t know why that happened. I clicked a few times and ask some of my friends to do the same and none of us had problems.
Roxana
Just followed Pinterest here. Love this recipe for homemade snickers! Hope to make it with my kiddos over the holiday break. Enjoyed looking through your blog!
Did you make them Roxana? The pic is the exact same pic from the link only with your website’s name on it, so I was just curious if you have made them. It would be cool if you took a pic of the ones you make! 🙂
Hi Shanna,
I was the one who made the Snickers bars for Imperial Sugar, that’s why you see the same photo on both sites. If you scroll to the bottom of the recipe on Imperial Sugar website, it is noted “Recipe developed for Imperial Sugar by Roxana Yawgel at Roxana’s Home Baking.”
Thanks, Roxana!
We do not have marshmallow fluff in Aus, so I made my own and my own caramel too. They still taste great! And they look picture perfect! Just took a bit longer. 🙂 Pinned this!
Zooze xx
I would like to be able to make this but I can’t because someone forgot to post the recepie.
How am I supposed to make this if you didn’t tell what the ingeriedents are?
Hi Jenny,
Here’s the link to the recipe http://bit.ly/1nYQnB4
It’s also shared with big red letter in the post
SERIOUSLY!!!! Where is the recipe???
Hi Porscha,
You can find the recipe here http://bit.ly/1nYQnB4
It’s written in my recipe notes in big red letters.
AAAAA….mazing! Thank you this was the easiest and BEST slice I have EVER made. Thank you! It is delicious and I am going to get sick on it but oh, so worth it.
I was really excited to try these. They were very easy to make and very tasty. They Might have even taken me less time if I prepped before hand. I absolutely love snickers, with that said I felt that these tasted more like a reese’s peanut butter cup (Which I also love) , I was just really excited for that snickers taste and all I got was peanut butter. easy recipe, good texture, good taste but I’ll probably stick to store bought snickers for now.
I love the recipe, but I think its so funny how the first comment was that it was faster than going to the store…because that is probably the furthest from the truth.
Awesome recipe though, definitely going to try it out
Delicious! I had some trouble getting the nougat to spread over the chocolate. Probably because I was impatient. I sprinkled some powdered sugar on the counter and rolled it out using a rolling pin. Worked beautifully. Going to try the Twix recipie next.
I found this great recipe on Pinterest, thanks, amazing snicker bars
This is everything I want in my life right now! Looks SO good!
