Snickers pie is a chocolate dessert made with five Snickers bars, mascarpone and soft cheese. The recipe appeared on the BBC cookery show Saturday Kitchen, where it was made by Antony Worrall Thompson.[1]
The Food Commission called the Snickers pie "one of the most unhealthy recipes ever published".[2] Antony Worrall Thompson said the pie was intended as a treat for children and was not meant for regular consumption.[3] The recipe was removed from the BBC website.[1][2]
According to the Food Commission's calculations, a single serving contains over 1,250 calories, the equivalent of 22 teaspoons of fat and 11 teaspoons of sugar.[3] However, this assumes a portion size of 1/4 of the pie,[4] contrary to the recipe which indicates the dish serves 12 adults or 16 children.[1]
The original recipe[1][3] was invented in 2006, when in the UK a single Snickers bar had a weight of 62.5 g. This weight was subsequently reduced to 58g in 2009,[5] and to 48 g in 2013.[6]
