Healthy Snickers Bites

Healthy Snickers Bites

By Yvonne Feld of Tried and Tasty

It's not uncommon for people to think that you can't indulge while still being healthy. What they don't realize is that is a totally false statement. You CAN indulge while still being healthy and these tasty little treats are proof! Snickers have always been one of my favorite candy bars. I love the caramel, the nougat, the crunch of the peanuts and, of course, the chocolate. Have you looked at the ingredient label on your favorite candy bars lately? Don't. You do not want to see what you've been eating. Chances are you won't be able to pronounce half of it anyway.

Insert my homemade version of healthy Snickers to the rescue. What I love about making treats and things at home is that YOU get to control the ingredients. You know exactly what goes into it and what you're ultimately putting into your body. This decadent dessert is totally guilt free and incredibly easy. I've stashed mine away in the freezer for a 'rainy day' when I've got a hankering for something sweet. I made them regular size – but next time want to try a mini size of them (as the regular are big enough to cut in half and be satisfying!).
