Time for something sweet! This Snickers pie was delicious! If you keep some gluten-free chocolate crumbs on hand in the freezer, like I do, it doesn’t take much longer than using a pre-made shell. Plus, instead of getting two pies, I got one large 10″ cake, made in a springform pan.
NOTES: I did use low-fat cream cheese & low-fat Cool Whip with great results, and it also cut back on some of the calories.

mmmmmm! NUM!! These look SO good! I’m hungry now!
You have so many delicious recipes here. I’m glad you left a comment so I could find your blog.
I would love for you to join my weekly blog carnival What’s for Dinner Wednesday (gluten-free style). Just come to my site on Wednesdays and link up with a gf dinner post.
I made this for thanksgiving this year and it was big hit with the celiacs and non-celiacs alike!
WOW! how did you make the GF crust? it looks wonderful! I am terrible at crusts, any advice?
@expatadi The crust wasn't hard at all. I baked some gluten-free "oreos", but instead of making into cookies, I made chocolate crumbs. http://www.thebakingbeauties.com/2008/06/gluten-free-oreo-cookies.html
You can also buy a GF chocolate cookie and pulse it in the food processor until you have crumbs. Hope this helps a little?
