Ingredients You’ll Need 🛒

This recipe makes 12 dreamy bars. Here’s what goes into them:

For the caramel:

• 12 pitted dates
• 3 tablespoons unsweetened peanut butter (I love using 100% peanut-based PB)
• 1 cup milk of choice (240 ml)

For the “ice cream” layer:

• 2 cups full-fat Greek yogurt (500 g)
• 5 tablespoons unsweetened peanut butter
• 4–5 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
• 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract

Toppings:

• Lightly salted roasted peanuts
• 200 g (7 oz.) 80% dark chocolate
• Extra crushed peanuts to sprinkle on top

How to Make Your Bars 🍨

1. Make the Caramel Layer

Blend the dates, peanut butter, and a bit of your milk of choice in a blender or food processor. Start with less milk and add more if needed until it’s nice and creamy.

2. Make the Ice Cream Mixture

In a bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, unsweetened peanut butter, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract until smooth and luscious.

3. Build Your Bars

Line a baking dish or container with parchment paper.

• Pour in the yogurt mixture first.
• Spoon the caramel mixture gently on top.
• Sprinkle on those salty roasted peanuts.

4. Freeze and Finish

Freeze for at least 8 hours or overnight. Once fully set, slice into bars, dip in melted dark chocolate, and top with crushed peanuts for that ultimate Snickers-style crunch! 😍

Tips & Serving Suggestions 🍴

• Let the bars sit at room temperature for about 15–20 minutes before enjoying so they soften just right.
• Want it extra nutty? Add a swirl of peanut butter in the yogurt mix!
• If you love variety, try using almond butter or tahini instead of peanut butter.
