Raw Snickers Bars

---

This is a recipe that requires some love and attention due to its three layers and chilling time in the freezer. This is why it’s perfect to create these for a special someone (includes yourself!) and really infuse ‘em in goodness and high vibes. For an all the way through low glycemic treat, use rice malt syrup or such in place of the dates in the carmel layer. If so, you may need to add some almond flour or the like to make it less runny.
