Twix Bars

Homemade Twix bar? Yup! And they ARE delicious!

I found a recipe and improvised it ALOT to make it what I wanted. This is a quick go to recipe if you have a family who loves caramel such as myself, or even a good cookie base with a thick layer of chocolate on top. I love a good cookie that melts in your mouth and something about the sugar and butter in this cookie keeps you begging for more.

Ingredients:

Crust:

  • 3 cups flour
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup butter (1 stick)

Filling:

  • ½ cup butter
  • 3 tbsp corn syrup (OR pure maple syrup)
  • ¼ cup canned coconut milk
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup sweetened condensed milk

Top Layer:

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp butter

For the crust, mix together all ingredients until mixture is crumbly.

In an 8×8 greased pan, press crust mixture into pan until evenly distributed.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake for 15-20 minutes or until light/golden brown.

Meanwhile, while the crust is baking begin the filling. In a small sauce pan, compile all ingredients and being to boil. Stir constantly.

Use canned Coconut milk for this recipe. It’s thicker and helps add consistency to the filling. If you do not have canned coconut milk, substitute this portion with more sweetened condensed milk. (Equal parts for substituting)

Once boiling, reduce heat to medium and stir constantly for 5 minutes. Set the timer, you must stir for a solid five minutes.

Once your five minutes is up and crust is warm out of the oven, pour filling on top. Refrigerate until solid.

Once cooled down, heat chocolate chips and butter together until melted. Pour on top!

Let chocolate harden and than cut and ENJOY!!!!!

I’m a BIG Caramel gal along with a great cookie! This is fabulous and is beyond description!

Be careful not to eat half the pan in your first sitting! :)

Store in the refrigerator to keep firm!
