No Bake Keto/Low Carb Peanut Butter Bars
🛒 What You’ll Need
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter (look for no-sugar-added!) 🥜
- ½ cup Coconut flour or almond flour (to help it set) 🥯
- ¼ cup Keto-friendly powdered sweetener 🍬
- ¼ cup Butter, melted 🧈
- For the Topping:
- ½ cup Sugar-free dark chocolate chips 🍫
- 1 tbsp Coconut oil (for that perfect chocolate snap!) 🥥
👩🍳 Instructions
- Mix the Base: In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, melted butter, sweetener, and flour. Stir until you have a thick, dough-like consistency. 🥣🌪️🤝
- Press it Down: Line a small square pan with parchment paper. Press the peanut butter mixture firmly into the bottom in an even layer. 📐🥇✨
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring until silky smooth. 🍫🔥💎
- The Top Layer: Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter base. Use a spatula to spread it all the way to the edges. 🥄🎨🙌
- Chill & Set: Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or the freezer for 20 minutes) until the chocolate is firm. ❄️⏲️📈
- Slice & Serve: Lift the bars out using the parchment paper and slice into squares. Look at those beautiful, thick layers! 🍽️😋🧤✨
🔥 Pro Tips:
- The “Perfect Cut” Secret: As shown in the photo, for clean edges, run your knife under hot water and wipe it dry before slicing through the cold chocolate layer! 🔪🛡️💎
- The “Texture” Hack: If your peanut butter is very runny, add an extra tablespoon of coconut flour to ensure the bars hold their shape at room temperature. 🥜🎯✅
