  • 1/4 cup Powdered Allulose
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tbsp Coconut Flour

For the Brownies

  • 1/2 cup Melted Butter
  • 4 oz Sugar Free Dark Chocolate, melted
  • 1/2 cup Powdered Allulose
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

How To Make

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350F and line a 9×9 pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

Whisk melted butter, melted chocolate, powdered allulose, eggs, and vanilla until glossy. Fold in almond flour, cocoa powder, and salt, then spread into the pan.

Step 3

Bake the brownies for 22 to 25 minutes until set with a fudgy center. Cool completely.

Step 4

Mix the peanut butter, melted butter, powdered allulose, vanilla, and coconut flour for the nougat until a smooth dough forms. Press evenly over the cooled brownies.

Step 5

For the caramel, cook the butter and powdered allulose in a saucepan over medium heat for 4 minutes until amber. Whisk in heavy cream and simmer 2 minutes.

Step 6

Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and let cool 10 minutes until thickened. Stir in the roasted peanuts and pour over the nougat layer.

Step 7

Chill the pan for 30 minutes until the caramel is firm and set.

Step 8

Pour the melted chocolate over the top, tilting to coat evenly. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and chill another 30 minutes before slicing into bars.

Tips

Get the Caramel Color Right

When you cook the butter and powdered allulose together, watch the color closely. Allulose caramelizes differently than regular sugar and it can go from golden amber to burned pretty fast.

Keep the heat at medium and stir constantly. Once you see it turn a nice amber color around the 3-4 minute mark, immediately whisk in the heavy cream. If it looks dark brown, it’s already gone too far and will taste bitter.

Also, be careful when you add the cream because it will bubble up aggressively. Use a tall saucepan so it doesn’t overflow on you.

Use Powdered Allulose, Not Granular

This recipe calls for powdered allulose specifically, and there’s a good reason. Granular allulose doesn’t dissolve as smoothly, especially in the nougat and brownie layers where you need a consistent texture.

If you only have granular allulose on hand, run it through a blender or food processor for about 30 seconds until it turns into a fine powder. It makes a real difference in the final texture of every layer.

Let the Brownies Cool Completely Before Layering

I know it’s tempting to start building the layers right away, but if the brownie base is even slightly warm, the nougat layer will soften and slide around instead of pressing down flat. The caramel layer on top will also melt into the nougat and you’ll lose the distinct Snickers-style layers.

I recommend letting the brownies cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, then popping them in the fridge for another 15-20 minutes. You want them fully cool and firm before you press the nougat on top.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different sweetener instead of powdered allulose?

Allulose works best here because it caramelizes just like regular sugar, which is especially important for the caramel layer. If you swap it out for something like erythritol or monk fruit, the caramel won’t turn amber or get that smooth, sticky texture you need.

If you really can’t find allulose, a monk fruit and allulose blend is your next best option. Just keep in mind that pure erythritol can crystallize and give you a gritty texture, so it’s not ideal for this recipe.
