hey everyone and welcome back to my channel and welcome it to a new video
and at today's video we're making us some healthy at candy bars we were
making some Twix some raw cookie butter cups and also some crunch bars a
lot of these were my favorite growing up don't forget to subscribe if you haven't
and let's get into it so first off we're making it Twix bars which were my
favorite when I was growing up comment your favorite chocolate bar down below
so that I can know we're starting off with some coconut flour and I love
coconut flour because it's high in fiber and it's high in protein and it also
makes it these paleo as well some coconut oil which raises your good
cholesterol and decreases your bad cholesterol and also lowers your risk of
heart disease so maple syrup which is a great
antioxidant and it's also a low GI sweetener which means it won't spike
your blood sugar as much and it's also anti-inflammatory we stir that together
and that's gonna make the shortbread base which is like the cookie part of
the normal Twix bar so stir that up until you get like a dough mixture like
this it comes together fairly quickly and then you're going to put that into
like a long loaf pan make sure you spray the loaf pan guys because if not these
will be very hard to get out so make sure you spray that with like a cooking
spray and then I'm just pushing that down until you get a nice even layer of
that and we're going to be baking that off at 350 for 10 minutes and everything
will be down the scripture box and then I'm using these coco Mel's which are
actually made of coconut milk if you want a homemade caramel you can make
that as well but I like these because the ingredients are really good and I'm
trying to make it realistic and easy for you guys to make them so if you can just
get these then they're really good and it's a cleaner ingredient than like high
fructose corn syrup or other like coconut caramels and they're also vegan
and I linked them on Amazon not sponsored I just love these caramels I
heat that up until it's kind of getting all runny like this and I'm spraying
that out on top of the shortbread after we've baked it so I
you bake the bottom layer for ten minutes you have the caramel melting
probably while that's baking and then you put it on and you want to work
fairly quickly and spreading this out as you guys can see the caramel kind of
starts to harden quite quickly of course using my Star Wars spatula feel like I
should get like other cooking things that are like known in my videos to add
to the Star Wars batch the family next up I'm going to be making the chocolate
topping so I'm using a some coconut oil you guys already know about that and
some raw cacao and I love this because it has 40 times the antioxidants of
blueberries it's full of magnesium iron and has more calcium than cow's milk so
intersect chocalate can't go wrong and a little bit of maple syrup before
sweetness and this really makes a nice chocolate on the top that's not too
sweet you have the raw cacao and because we're not cooking this after you still
get the benefits of the rocket cow all the iron magnesium calcium antioxidants
so it's pretty good you just stir that up and it makes a nice thick glaze on
the top you guys might remember this from the glaze I did in my donuts and I
think I used it something else so I've made this quite a few times and it's a
totally hit I took my new hat for making healthy chocolate so I put that on at
the top of the caramel and I did chill the caramel with the shortbread in the
fridge just while I was making the chocolate top and then you just put that
on the top and we're going to be spreading that out into a nice even
layer and just try to get that as even as you can making a nice even that's
pretty much how easy it is I set that in the fridge to set and then cut it into
little bars and it look like this you got the shortbread cookie the Karma my
chocolate topping it tastes totally like Twix but it's made from a lot better
ingredients one of my favorites and also my brother's favorite are crunch bars so
I'm using some brown rice Crips these are better than like the white kind
they're higher in fiber and they are like released the glucose more slowly
into your system so I'm dairy free chocolate which I like because they only
have a few ingredients it's the enjoylife brand um so it's just
more cleaner than having like a lot of refined and bad sugars in it or fake
stuff I really hate chocolate with fake stuff and so this brands really good and
I mix that up this is probably the most implicitly to do and then I just pour it
on some part paper and that is how we're basically
gonna make our crunch bars so you want to work a semi quickly and kind of make
it into a rectangle shape so that you can make it in two bars we don't want to
make it in two bars you can just make like crunch bark but I'm trying to make
like the actual bar shape so we get like the full bar experience I chilled that
in the fridge for honestly like 10 minutes and it set pretty quickly and
then you can just chop it up like I'm doing here and you actually get bars but
you get that crunch from the brown rice crisps but they're like better for you
it's also gluten free which is awesome and they turned out really good it's a
nice sweet treat that you can have and let's face it they paste pretty much
exactly like crunch bars but they don't have any of that fake ingredients and
lastly we're making these cookie dough cups which I kind of like a play on my
Reese's Cup because I've already made peanut butter cups everybody made almond
butter cups these are the chocolate chips that I've been working with
throughout the whole video once again not sponsored but you guys seem to ask
what the brands that I love so I melt that down in the microwave I do it at
thirty-second increments so that the chocolate doesn't burn so just every 30
seconds make sure you check on it and stir it up and it's probably done before
they fully look like they're melted because they will melt within the
chocolate and the glass will like help melt them down so I'm putting about a
teaspoon into the base of these silicone molds I got them at IKEA they were super
cheap I think they're like 12 for like $3 and then I'm using this eat paste
Street cookie dough this one is vegan which is good because we're eating it
raw and you don't want to use just like some commercial brand that will have egg
in it because I'm like that's a risk so this is vegan which is good and also the
ingredients are really really good I heard about this from little supper and
it really did not disappoint they also have eight gluten free one I
put a little bit more chocolate on the top and then you put them in the freezer
and they said if you guys want to make your own cookie dough I will leave a
recipe for that with like chickpeas and everything it down below but I've used
lots of times and would be a good alternative so I hope you guys enjoyed
