I love this Homemade Snickers Bars Recipe! I immediately knew that I had to make this candy for my husband. They are amazing and there is seriously nothing better in my opinion than a Snickers Bar. The combination of chocolate, nougat and caramel are out of this world! It is a recipe that takes time but in the end it is worth it! This would be a great dessert for any holiday or special occasion. I also think it would make a great gift for someone.
I personally chose to use a double boiler for each step but you can also use a saucepan or microwave. Be sure not to let your chocolate burn!
These Homemade Snickers Bars taste AMAZING! They are seriously the BEST dessert and my husband says they are better than the store bought version!
