Creamy peanut butter and rich chocolate come together in these irresistible No-Bake Keto Peanut Butter Chocolate Bars! Made with just six simple ingredients and minimal effort, this low-carb treat is perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth.
INGREDIENTS
Peanut Butter Layer:
- 1 cup natural peanut butter (I use Smucker’s Natural Crunchy)
- 4 tbsp butter, softened
- 2/3 cup Lakanto monk fruit powdered sweetener
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
Chocolate Topping:
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 (3oz) Lily’s Creamy Milk Chocolate Candy Bar
INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare the Peanut Butter Layer:
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter at high speed.
- Add powdered monk fruit sweetener, peanut butter, and coconut flour.
- Mix on medium speed until well combined and smooth.
- Set the Base:
- Line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper (or grease it).
- Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly in the pan.
- Place in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up.
- Make the Chocolate Topping:
- Break the Lily’s Chocolate Bar into small pieces and place them in a greased, microwave-safe bowl.
- Add 1 tbsp butter.
- Microwave on low power for 30 seconds, then stir.
- If not fully melted, continue microwaving in 15-second intervals, stirring between each to prevent overheating.
- Assemble the Bars:
- Remove the peanut butter layer from the freezer.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the top and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Return to the freezer for several hours or overnight to set.
- Serving & Storage:
- Once set, slice into bars.
- Store in the refrigerator or freezer for the best texture.
NOTES
- Sugar alcohols in monk fruit sweetener and Lily’s Chocolate Bar are not included in the nutritional calculation since they are typically subtracted for net carbs.
- You can substitute almond flour for coconut flour at a 1:4 ratio (1/4 cup coconut flour = 1 cup almond flour).
- Swerve Confectioners can be used in place of Lakanto monk fruit sweetener in equal amounts.
