It’s Wicked Wednesday again! On the third Wednesday of every month I share with you a wicked recipe! If you are new to ThermoFun make sure you check out my other Wicked Wednesday recipes.
Oh my!!!! This is just soo AMAZING!!!! Yes we all know that I LOVE chocolate and the Snickers bar is probably one of my top favourites. When I saw this recipe via youtube on my facebook newsfeed I knew I had to make it immediately! Luckily I had all the ingredients on hand! Well the final result was sooo exciting to think I've now replicated a Snickers Bar! :) I did 'have to' make it many times this weekend just to make sure it was perfect of course!
Tania, one of my lovely recipe testers said I should call it "Can No Longer Fit in Your Knickers Slice"!!!
It's a good thing I have my Dieting Rules to follow or this could be very, very dangerous!! ;)
This Snickers recipe was inspired by a Kidspot recipe tweaked to be made in the Thermomix.

Just made this as my husband's birthday cake for the first time! A huge thumbs up. Am absolutely loving your recipes, worth all the effort. Thanks so much for sharing them with us.
thermofun says
Fabulous to hear Nia thank you! Hope hubby had a lovely birthday too!
Tracy says
I've been meaning to make this for ages, but suspected it would be a bad thing for my hips & thighs and I wasn't wrong! I had some issues with melting the marshmallows, probably due to the brand I used or something, so next time I'm just going to melt them in the microwave (they just made a big, hard, sticky mess in my bowl, which took forever to get out). Absolutely amazing. The caramel is my absolute favourite part, chewy and delicious! I'll definitely be making this again and again.
thermofun says
So pleased you enjoyed it Tracy! :) If you follow my dieting rules your hips and thighs will behave themselves!! ;)
Helen says
Hi, just wondering how you managed to achieve the fancy pattern in the chocolate in the photos? Looks amazing! Thanks :)
thermofun says
Hi Helen, Once your melted chocolate has been setting for 10/15 mins, use your fork prongs to touch and drag up the surface along the length of the slice creating a texture. (I use one of those choc dipping forks with two only prongs). (It needs to be set enough to hold its shape but not too set to damage the smooth top). I hope this helps Helen. :)
Jess says
Could I make and use homemade marshmallows you think?
thermofun says
Jess I haven't tried with this recipe but I don't see why not! :) I'd love to hear how it goes.
Cooper says
Quick question - do you slice once set and then store in the fridge or slice as you go?
thermofun says
I tend to slice as I go - or can vary. So really it doesn't matter which! In cooler weather I also keep it out of the fridge as it is even nicer when at room temp! :)
Amanda D says
So so so good! Thanks for another wicked but AMAZING recipe!
thermofun says
Thank you Amanda! Yes it is very wicked!!! :)
Marilyn Newton says
Hi , I am wondering if you may have missed a step in the Caramel Method between steps 9 and 10.
I am thinking I should spread the caramel over the marshmallow mixture before placing it again into the freezer. Hope I dont sound too pedantic.
Cheers
Marilyn
thermofun says
Yes you are exactly right Marilyn! Thank you! I will edit recipe now! :)
