Why didn’t anyone tell me about dates?!

Apparently, you can make date snacks that taste exactly like a snickers bar by studying a date with peanut butter, peanuts, a bit of salt, and some chocolate drizzle.

And now that I think about that I bet you can quickly use a blender to turn them into a snickers flavoured milkshake ..

Sounds about right in terms of texture and sweetness. I just checked the per 100 g calories and dates are about ⅔ of nougat so slightly better in that sense. I imagine with the added fiber and nutrients it's a winner for those that have a snickers hankering...

@Kalidor @hankgreen and being home made you can quality control the ingredients. So likely less salt and sugar. And now that I think of it you are replacing not just nougat but also caramel so likely even less sugar!
