Snickers was by far my favourite chocolate bar growing up. I mean, pretty obvious since I’ve posted multiple Snickers-esque recipes in the past including my Snickers Chia Pudding and homemade raw Snickers Bars. Chocolate, caramel and peanut butter is amazing, but so is the word SNICKERS. WHAT A NAME! LOOK AT ME LOSING CONCENTRATION 2 SENTENCES in! ANYWAY! Today I bring to you my Vegan Snickers Ice Cream Bars. Simply put – a Chocolate Oat base, Vanilla Cashew Ice Cream base, Peanut Butter Caramel and the icing on the ice cream cake is a delicious Chocolate Glaze.
I haven’t much else to say besides these little bastards are fkn delicious – Vegan Snickers anything is fkn delicious in my opinion, you can’t really go wrong. These Vegan Snickers Ice Cream Bars come together in under a couple of hours (sans the overnight freezing, so sue me), and are perfectly portioned out once you slice them into bars….that is if portion control is something you’re accustomed to. I certainly am not. To be honest I think I ended up eating these Snickers Ice Cream Bars for breakfast, lunch, dinner over a couple of days. I don’t recommend anyone following my atrocious diet, so take that as a PSA. My body is a trash can.
Everything comes together in a food processor aside from the Cashew Ice Cream Filling which you’ll ideally make in a high speed blender so that it’s creamy dreamy and void of graininess, but if you don’t have a blender, feel free to sort it all out in your food processor. By some divine miracle, these Snickers Ice Cream Bars are refined sugar free, gluten free and obviously entirely dairy free. Trust me though, you won’t be able to tell. Even my omni boyfriend loves them (yes I have a boyfriend now, bless his cotton socks for putting up with my stream of endless mood swings and bullshit).
Anyhoo, I shan’t bore you with more verbal diarrhoea, so scroll down to grab the full recipe for these delicious frozen Snickers Bars. As always, don’t hesitate to drop a comment if you try this or any other recipes out, and feel free to tag me on Instagram too! Adios for now!
