Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, cream the butter and sugar together.
- Mix in the vanilla extract and flour until the dough comes together.
- Press the dough into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool.
- While the crust is cooling, melt the caramel pieces in the microwave. Add the caramel and heavy cream to a microwave-safe bowl, and heat in 30-second increments until melted and smooth.
- Pour the caramel over the cooled cookie layer.
- Freeze for 30 minutes, until the caramel has hardened.
- Place the chocolate chips and coconut oil in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments. Stir until melted and smooth. Let the chocolate cool.
- While the chocolate is cooling, take the pan out of the freezer and slice the bars into slices about 1 inch wide.
- Place the bars on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, and return them to the freezer for a few minutes.
- Using two forks, submerge each bar into the melted chocolate until fully coated.
- Remove each bar from the chocolate, letting excess chocolate drip off. Then, transfer the bars to the parchment paper-lined baking sheet to let them cool.
- Drizzle the tops of the bars with extra chocolate.
- Return the bars to the refrigerator or freezer until the chocolate hardens.
Notes
- Storage: Store homemade Twix bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
