A healthier take on your classic Twix bar! This dessert is one of my most popular to date. It’s easy to make and gluten, dairy and refined sugar free. I added a scoop of Truvani protein to the peanut butter layer to help with blood sugar stabilization and to make them super filling. I like to use Hu Kitchen keto chocolate chips that are simple ingredients and lower in sugar. Store in the freezer!
