What’s the food that you eat to completely undo it?
And by undo it I mean, UNDOOOOO it.
Undo your brain, undo your diet…just undo it.
Well, listen here, friends.
I have made you some bars that will not only undo your day’s problems, they will also help you undo your jean’s top button…and maybe a little zipper too.
I don’t mean that in a sexy-time way, either. These bars are that major.
They’re an end of the day, cleansing breath, getting comfy, eat with two hands, kind of a bar.
Sometimes you have to go for it.
Death by Snickers Bars.
So let’s begin.
Don’t be alarmed by the amount of butter. It’s just an innocent 4 sticks.
Or the amount of brown sugar. Just 3 cups.
You’re making caramel bars here people. Get over it.
You’ll need some Snickers bars.
Then you’ll need to chop them up. Trust me, they’re cool with it.
Mix up all your ingredients and spread it evenly in your prepared pan. Make sure to leave a little overhang of foil at the end. It will help when it’s time to cut and remove.
Next take that glorious can of dulce de leche. I found mine down the Mexican food aisle of the super market…if you can’t find that in your store, no worries…make your own! Yes, you can. Here’s a great how-to for making your own dulce de leche.
Plop the dulce de leche all over the top of your batter…
And swirl it all in.
Then bake it up.
You have to let these bars have some downtime after they’re done. I like to make them the night before, because they take quite a bit of time to set up and cool. If you can’t wait overnight, give them at least 3 hours.
Here’s how they’ll look…
That’s it. Cut them, eat them and loosen that belt.

Notes
Bars may still appear slightly loose in the center. Don’t overcook.
These bars are best if made the night before. They take quite a bit of time to set up.
I am never afraid of butter and sugar! I can’t wait to make these for my mom for Mother’s Day, she loves Snickers.
Snickers are my hubby’s favorite! But he doesn’t have to *undo*!! Even after 20 years of marriage, he’s still slim..no fair 😉 These look awesome!
Goodness gracious! These look absoulutely amazing!
They are in the oven! They smell amazing! I couldn’t find dulce de leche in my local grocery store though 🙁 I thought it was more like caramel.. But one of the workers told me to get sweeten condensed milk.. Hopefully it will turn out! Next time I will have to do some more looking around.. But I was so anxious to try these, I couldn’t wait! Thanks for sharing!
I would love to hear how they came out with the sweetened condensed milk. I actually contemplated making the recipe that way because I know some people have trouble finding dulce de leche.
They look amazing :O
