Snickers Almond Pie

Submitted by SarahBeth

"This is adapted from a candy bar pie I found in Southern Living. I prefer the almond to the peanuts, but I leave the peanut butter in there, I may try nutella at some point, or almond butter. I am not sure if it exists, but I have never looked for it either! Anyway! Enjoy! :)"
