Thick, rich, chewy Snickers Brownies make a decadent dessert that’s quick and easy to make. They’re the ultimate combination of brownies and candy.
Snickers Brownies
I’ve had some fun-sized snickers bars hanging around my house for a while now. Part of me wants to say they’re leftover from Halloween and the other part of me doesn’t want to admit that. Since they clearly weren’t being eaten as is, I thought I’d throw them into a dessert to use them up.
How do we make candy seem more appealing? Put it on a brownie. Brownies just seemed to be the perfect vehicle for those little Snickers bars begging to be eaten. I mean really, could there be anything better than brownies studded with sweet, crunchy, caramel-y candy bars?
No. Snickers brownies, you have ZERO competition.
Speaking of competition, I’m having ANOTHER giveaway! Since What The Fork Food Blog is now 2, I thought two giveaways seemed appropriate. Today’s giveaway is for some of my favorite Rodelle vanilla products – vanilla extract, vanilla beans, baking cocoa, and almond extract. You can enter the giveaway with the giveaway form below the recipe. Good Luck!
The first giveaway can be found below my gluten free meyer lemon bread recipe. That giveaway is for a Le Creuset Signature Saucepan so don’t miss out on that!
Before you get to the recipe, I just want to let you know that these brownies would make fabulous brownie sundaes. Pile them high with with vanilla ice cream, chopped snickers bars, and a drizzle of chocolate AND caramel.
Now, tell me – what’s your favorite way to eat brownies – fudgy, chewy, cake-like, in ice cream, covered in ice cream, by the pan-full? Enjoy!

Im confused, what are the measurements when it say “1/3 C” is this meaning cups? not very clear
C is the standard abbreviation for “cup” or “cups”
A) Can you be my mom and make these for me?
B) I have a bag of coconut sugar I bought for a recipe and now I have no idea what to do with. Do you know if I could use it in these in place of the cane sugar?
Visiting from the awesome Buns in my Oven.
LOL 2 kids is enough for me ????
As far as coconut sugar goes, you can use it but it will give it a slightly drier texture but not to the extent that coconut flour will. These are pretty fudgy/chewy so it shouldn’t be enough to make it too dry. You could always add 1-2 tablespoons of water though to offset that.
Oh my! Yes! These brownies look so delicious!
Chewies are my favorite!
I like a cake like brownie the best.
I love fudgy, chewy brownies.
I’ve read that while Snickers are gluten free some cross contamination can occur during seasonal months when they are meeting supply and demand. Always good to read the labels during the holidays. May favorite brownies are cake like, Thanks for the chance.
You’re right, that’s why it’s always important to check package information for the most up to date info 🙂
These brownies looks so delicious! I love rich, chewy brownies.
Thanks Shawna!
My favorite are chewy and I love the edge pieces when they get crisp and crunchy.
My favorite brownie is fudgy, but I’ll eat any kind of brownie. 🙂
I’m a fan of the fudgy textured brownie, the darker the better with a bit of espresso powder.
I am on team fudgy brownie
My favorite moist and dense with a slight chewiness and the slight crust on the top that cracks, oh my! I melt for those. haha I probably gave a horrible explanation. >.<
They were leftover from Halloween? Did I read that right? That would NEVER happen in my house. I would eat them all. No willpower. There is never any leftover candy here! LOL I will gladly buy some though to make these scrumptious looking brownies!
I’m a fan of the fudgy brownie!
Seriously, I didn’t know a brownie could get better!
I had to look away, but I just couldn’t resist! These look great!
I must say that your recipe looks totally awesome and Snickers has to be the best candy bar on Earth
You’ve taken homemade brownies to a brand new, delicious level.
Brownies are my family’s favorite. I love to prepare them cake-like and fudgy. Yours look really delicious and thanks for sharing the recipe. I look forward to preparing them for my family. Thanks for the chance to win.
Fudgey all the way for me, although I will never turn down chocolate-flavored-anything with Snickers in it haha!
Decadent brownies are totally my thing. These look like heaven, and I can not make them fast enough!
Such a great question – does raw count for my favorite kind of brownie?!?! 😉
