These sugar free chocolate candy bars with nuts are moist, soft and so delicious. They consist of just five ingredients and are very easy to make at home. You can snack on them without feeling guilty or give them as a gift. You can find a detailed healthy chocolate candy bars recipe with the exact quantities and step-by-step instructions below.

Which nuts for healthy chocolate candy bars?

You can make the healthy chocolate candy bars from any nuts, similar to the nut corners. You can also use a mixture of different nuts and seeds.

I have used peanuts, hazelnuts and walnuts in the recipe. Almonds and pistachios, among others, are just as suitable.

It’s best to use whole nuts and roast them yourself in a pan or in the oven, just like for the walnut ghriba. This allows them to develop their full aroma and flavor.

Incidentally, you can roughly chop some of the nuts if you want crunchy nut pieces in your candies.

Dates for sweetness and texture

Dates are used as a sweetener in the recipe. They also ensure that the candy dough has a malleable consistency. It’s similar in my no bake vegan avocado pie recipe and vegan carrot cake recipe.

It is best to use fresh dates for the chocolate candy bars with nuts. They must not contain any added sugar or other additives.

Alternatively, you can use dried dates. Soak them briefly in warm water and then dry them thoroughly.

Modify the recipe

You can modify this sugar free chocolate candy bars recipe to suit your mood, just like the kartoshka made from rusk recipe or the chocolate sausage recipe.

For example, add different spices, such as cinnamon or vanilla, to the nut date mixture.

You can replace some of the nuts with rolled oats. In addition to dates, other dried fruits such as dried apricots or prunes are also suitable. You can refine the dough with grated coconut.

How to shape sugar free chocolate candy bars?

I put the candy mixture in a freezer bag and flattened it into a rectangle. Once chilled, it is then easy to cut into small squares.

Alternatively, you can place the candy dough in a rectangular baking tin lined with baking paper and smooth it out. Place the baking tin in the freezer for just as short a time.

Depending on your taste, you can make long candies instead of square ones, similar to the Bird’s milk sweets.

Round candies also look pretty. After chilling, shape the nut date mixture into small balls and flatten them slightly. Or simply leave the sweets in the shape of balls.

Perfect as a gift

The sugar free chocolate candy bars with nuts are ideal as a gift. They pass as a last-minute gift from the kitchen. The same goes for the homemade chocolate covered almonds, mandarin jam and Russian halva.

Pack them in a pretty chocolate box or in a nice storage jar and give them as gifts for Christmas, Easter, Mother’s Day or Valentine’s Day.
