Air Fried Snickers Recipe Tips

❄️ Chill or freeze the Snickers first – This helps prevent them from melting too quickly while cooking.
🌀 Seal the dough well – Pinch all seams tightly so the chocolate doesn’t leak out during air frying.
🌪️ Preheat your air fryer – Ensures even cooking and a crisp, golden exterior.
⏱️ Don’t overcrowd the basket – Leave space between each wrapped bar for best air circulation.
🍦 Serve with extras – Add a scoop of ice cream or drizzle with chocolate syrup for a decadent finish!

Storing

Store leftover air fryer Snickers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer for 1–2 minutes to restore the crispy texture.

Air Fryer Snickers Recipe Faqs

❄️ Should I freeze the Snickers before air frying? Yes, freezing helps the bars hold their shape and prevents them from melting too quickly.

🌀 Can I use crescent rolls or biscuit dough? Absolutely! Both work great—just make sure to seal the dough well around the candy.

How long do I cook them in the air fryer? Typically 6–8 minutes at 350°F, or until golden brown.

🧁 Can I use other candy bars? Yes! Try it with Milky Way, Reese’s, or Twix for fun variations.

🍦 What should I serve them with? These are amazing with ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce!
