I have one more last minute Halloween candy make over for you guys today and it's super easy with no weird ingredients. These Vegan 100 Grand Candy Bar cups inspired by the candy bar of course, are the perfect treat to whip up in hurry.

I've actually never had this candy before and honestly had no clue what was in it so I did a little search to find out. The description I found was pretty much chewy caramel and crisp rice dipped in milk chocolate. That seemed easy enough to create a vegan version of so I came up with this delicious cup form of the treat.

ingredients

Typically caramel consists of heavy cream, butter, and a lot of sugar. No thanks! Dates are naturally very sweet and have a bit of a caramel flavor, making them ideal for replacing the caramel in a variety of recipes. So that’s just what we did here. A little oat flour thickens the date mixture and you get a delicious caramel center with no added sugar.

I can’t say for certain how close these taste to the non vegan 100 Grand Bar because I've never had one, but I can say my version is very tasty. Try them slightly thawed from the freezer for a chewy caramel center or let them thaw longer for a creamier center.

These Vegan Peanut Butter Snickers Bites are a great alternative to the traditional non vegan version.

Peanut butter cups are given in any candy bowl at Halloween. These Vegan Pumpkin Peanut Butter Cups are a super delicious spin on the common candy.
