– Snickers Slice –
This snickers slice is unbelievably yummy! Its got layers of chocolate, caramel, salty peanuts and a nougat textured marshmallow fluff with peanuts that’s simply delicious. I was a little hesitant at first thinking that no one could crack the snickers bar in under 30 minutes but boy oh boy have I been surprised.
After a little research I found the site I think this recipe originated from at Imperial Sugar. There are so many of these snickers bars recipe’s on the web it gets a little hard to work out who to thank for this.

2. Add 1 cup of the milk chocolate chips with 3 tablespoons (55g) of peanut butter to a small saucepan.
3. Over a low heat stir until combined.
4. Pour the melted peanut butter chocolate into your baking tray.
5. Spread the chocolate evenly over the base of the tray and then pop it into the freezer to set (It will only need a couple of minutes).
6. Next put your icing sugar, 1/4 cup of peanut butter and marshmallow fluff into your mixing bowl.
7. Stir until combined.
8. Pull your tray out of the freezer.
9. Using a couple of spoons drop dollops of your mixture over the top of the chocolate layer.
10. Wash your hands (Leave them a little wet) and use your fingers to push down the layer until the surface is evenly covered.
11. Grab your peanuts and sprinkle them over the top.
12. Wash those hands again (Leaving them a little wet) and gently push down the peanuts into the mixture so that you have an even layer.
13. Next put your cream and jersey caramels in a saucepan to melt over a medium heat.
14. Push and squish them with a wooden spoon to speed up the process.
15. Your caramel layer is ready once all the ingredients are melted and combined.
16. Pour the caramel over the top to form the next layer of the snickers slice.
17. Use the back of a metal spoon to smooth the layer evenly across the slice.
18. Finally melt the remaining chocolate chips and peanut butter.

I am not a huge candy eater, but Snickers is one of my faves when I do! But I have to ask, what is marshmallow fluff? I live in the U.S. I have never heard of it?

Great question! I’ve added a link to the company website under the Hints and Tips section of the Snickers Slice recipe 🙂 I buy mine from the 50 States American Foodmart in Perth Western Australia. It’s a very sweet marshmallow-like confection spread made with corn syrup, sugar, egg whites and vanillin (Yep vanillin not vanilla).
