Peanut Butter Snickers Brownies
Updated March 26, 2019
Happy Halloween! Is everyone ready for the Halloween sugar rush? If you end up having leftover Halloween candy or want to raid your children’s stash, pick out all of the Snickers candy bars you can find to make these Peanut Butter Snickers Brownies. This recipe is perfect for using up the leftover or stolen Halloween candy:)
These decadent brownies are a dream for peanut butter and chocolate lovers. The brownies are fudgy, rich, and dotted with Snickers candy bar chunks. Don’t worry, we aren’t done yet. The brownies also have a thick and creamy peanut butter swirl. Brownies, Snickers, and peanut butter all in one dessert, it doesn’t get much better than this folks!
We weren’t planning on taking our little guy out for trick or treating, but I may have to just so I can load up on Snickers bars. I really want to make these Peanut Butter Snickers brownies again. And it would be my job as a mother to eat his candy since he is too young, right? I am just trying to be a good mama:)
So gather up your Snickers bars and get baking! You are in for a trip to brownie heaven.

Looks like I’ll need to stock up on snickers as soon as they go on sale!
I think it would be fabulous to be a ‘good mother’ and help Caleb with his Halloween candy ๐ I sent my hubs out tonite to buy Halloween candy but told him what kinds to buy and not buy…in case we have leftovers, after all.
These brownies look fabulous. Lovely!
Wow! Those brownies look delicious. If I was not afraid of waking up the entire house, I would make them right now!
I agree, it is most definitely your job to eat candy on his behalf! I hope you manage to pick up some snickers because these look so good!
Mmmmm I love snickers and I love brownies. These are so crazy-yummy looking!
Ugh, WANT these for breakfast!
Ohhh, these are great!! I’d love to do a version with a mix of my favorite bars – i.e., Snickers, 3 Musketeers, Reeses… ๐
Hehe ๐ are you dressing little man up? Kaylin is going to be minnie! These do look like a chocolate lovers dream
I am off to buy more Starburst and Skittles…my trick-or-treaters won’t be getting any Snickers tonight! ๐
snickers are totally the best halloween candy find…which reminds me, i better stock up on candy today! snickers for me, other stuff for the kids ๐
Awesome idea for using up leftover candy! I think I’ll be making these tomorrow. ๐
Great job Maria! These look incredible!
So rich and delicious!
pure heaven.
Perfecto! 2 of the best candy bars in one gooey brownie, yum!
These brownies look wonderful!
I adore snickers. I love it so much I ate the whole bag this weekend. Told hubby to buy some more :))
These brownies look great, and not just as an after Halloween treat. Snickers is available year round, hooray!
Have that kind of speechless YUM going on here! Happy Trick-or-treating!
IS THIS A TRICK OR A TREAT?
These make me want to go trick or treating and I’m a total scrooge when it comes to Halloween! Delicious ๐
I totally made a variation of these a few weeks ago from Baking Addiction, and they were AMAZING. Now I see these, and I want to cry. They look so delicious! Two batches in a couple weeks seems a little decadent, but hey, I’m worth it!
I mean, seriously – there’s really no better dessert flavor combination.
These look too good to be legal! Thanks for sharing!
o.m.g. These sound over the top delicious. They look soooo moist. Love this recipe. Happy Halloween!
These look like the perfect Halloween treat! I didn’t buy any Snickers to give out this year, mostly because I would eat them all. I think I might have to go buy some now though just to make these. Happy Halloween!!
omg these look amazing & super naughty! snickers are my favorite chocolate candy ๐ happy halloween!!
I think you guys should ABSOLUTELY take Caleb Trick or Treating! And then bake away/nibble on his stash. That IS part of the fun of having kids.
these brownies look amazing! The ultimate chocolate/peanut butter experience.
I have no plans for Halloween, so if you wouldn’t mind sending me some of these, I will gladly take them off your hands ๐
Now I no longer have to choose! My two favorite chocolate guilty pleasures -brownies and Snickers – now in one bite!
Oh my! Those sound absolutely amazing! Not only snickers, but pb swirl too!! Definitely making these soon!
snickers were Eli’s first candy at age 3 (we kept sugar from him until then), he was hooked after that. my family would love these
I’m not a huge peanut butter fan, but this is a great way to use up some leftover Halloween candy.
You really can not go wrong with brownies, peanut butter, and snickers! I am a sucker for any kind of brownies, but these are amazing!
You are amazing. I just want to live with you and have you bake for me day and night. ๐
This is so funny, I literally just made these over on my blog less than 3 days ago! I love Snickers, and I can’t wait to try some of the other Peanut Butter Snickers recipes!
Oh my gosh! I am so hitting up Halloween candy sales tomorrow to make these brownies. Snickers are my favorite candy, and brownies are one of my favorite desserts. I can’t wait to put them together. Thanks so much for the post!
Boy do I wish I had stocked up on Halloween candy now!
YUM! Your boy is going to have to fight to keep his lunches when he goes to school ๐ These look like a perfect combination!
Perfect thing to do with all of that leftover Halloween Snickers ๐
These look AMAZING. You can’t beat peanut butter and chocolate as a combo, and I love that you’ve taken these to the next level with even more peanut butter. Delicious.
I swear you must know me! This would be my absolute favorite dessert ever!!! I may have to bite the bullet and make this!!!
thankfully we do NOT have any leftover candy.
last year we had a ton and I made a “everyone in the pool” bundt cake.
I would not want to make these as they would be eaten in a day–all of it! LOL
good way to use up some of that Halloween candy
Snickers is one of my favorite treats ever…and so are brownies. I’m a goner!
I really want to make these for my Dad. He loves snickers!
If only the trick or treaters hadn’t taken all of our candy, I cannot believe how many people we had last night. May have to buy some snickers just for this recipe!
Yep, this is exactly where our leftover Snickers bars need to go. Yum!
And I just so happen to have Snicker bars in my candy bowl…some people might call that a coincidence but I say…FATE!!!
It was meant to be ๐
oh, me, oh, MY! those look delish!
Left over Halloween candy? Not in my house! I’ll need to run out and buy more Snickers! Those brownies look amazing!
What a great way to use leftover Halloween candy! Wait, I swore I wouldn’t eat any of it…beautiful images too.
Yummmmm! You have the magic touch when it comes to brownies, Maria! I looooooooove your twix brownies, and even though I’m not a huge fan of peanut butter and chocolate (I know, weird), I bet these are amazing. And I know the hubster would love them; Snickers are his very fave!
These look wonderfully decadent! I want to live next door.
WOW… I have just made these, so yummy… well worth it! Mmm a nice surprise for my partner when he gets home from work ๐ xoxo
How many fun size snickers would you recommend be used in this recipe to make 1 1/2 cups?
I didn’t count, maybe 10???
These are awesome brownies! Instead of a peanut butter swirl I used caramel because my husband isn’t a big peanut butter fan. Delicious. I think this will be my new go to brownie recipe. Thanks!
So Happy to Finally Find the recipe I have been searching for. Couldn’t spot a PRINT tab on page that would allow me to print only recipe,and not whole 6 pages. Did I miss it?
Look right below the image on the recipe. There is a little printer icon. Click that and a printer friendly version will pop up!
I halved the recipe and swapped in chopped mini eggs instead of the snickers and peanut butter. I loved it! I will definitely try with the peanut butter though. Great brownie recipe!
I made these and we loved them. ย Great texture and taste. ย Mine only needed 25 minutes. ย So good!!
Yummy. In my oven as I type this review. I did double the recipe Andy melted the peanut butter so it would swirl easier and also added some walnuts. Yummy!
I made this and it was bomb!! Iโve shared the recipe with at least 5 people now! Love from Nigeria
Loved it
