- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
Caramel Layer
- ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
- ½ cup nut butter, almond, peanut or cashew butter
- 3 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup cashews, slightly crushed
Chocolate Coating
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions
- First, line an 8 inch by 8 inch pan with parchment paper.
- Make shortbread layer. Add all shortbread ingredients to a mixing bowl. Stir to combine. Press into an even layer in the lined pan. Place pan in freezer.
- Next, make caramel layer. Add all caramel ingredients except cashews to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave 30 seconds or until smooth and creamy. Stir to combine.
- Add in crushed cashews to the melted caramel mixture. Pour this over shortbread layer. Freeze this at least 30 minutes or until completely frozen.
- Once bars are frozen, remove pan from freezer. Use parchment paper to take bars out of the pan. Slice into 8 bars.
- Make chocolate coating. Add chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds or until smooth and creamy.
- Dip each bar into melted chocolate. Place on parchment lined baking sheet. If needed, spoon more chocolate over each bar so they are completely covered in chocolate.
- Garnish with chopped cashews if desired.
- Lastly, freeze for another 30 minutes or until chocolate has hardened.
Notes
- Press shortbread layer into one even layer in pan.
- Stir caramel until smooth and creamy.
- Allow bars to freeze fully before slicing and dipping into melted chocolate.
- Use spoon or tongs to help you dip the bars into melted chocolate. Spoon more melted chocolate over bars so they are completely covered.
- Freeze Snickers bars until chocolate has hardened.
- Store bars in the fridge or freezer.
