Twix Cookies
Ingredients:
For the Shortbread Cookies:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
For the Caramel Layer:
15 soft caramels, unwrapped
2 tablespoons heavy cream
For the Chocolate Layer:
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
Directions:
Prepare the Shortbread Cookies:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and powdered sugar together until light and fluffy.
Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until just combined.
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with your hand or the bottom of a glass.
Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the Caramel Layer:
In a small saucepan, melt the caramels and heavy cream over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of caramel onto each cooled cookie, spreading it evenly over the top. Let the caramel set for about 10 minutes.
Make the Chocolate Layer:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the milk chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Spoon or drizzle the melted chocolate over the caramel layer on each cookie.
Allow the chocolate to set completely before serving.
Serve and Enjoy:
These Twix-inspired cookies have all the layers you love from the candy bar – buttery shortbread, gooey caramel, and a rich chocolate topping!
