Categories     Dessert

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup salted butter (2 sticks, at room temperature)
1 cup confectioners sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups All-Purpose Flour
2 cups caramel (cut into small chunks (about 14 oz))
3 tablespoons heavy cream
2 cups milk chocolate (chopped, melted)
1 tablespoon vegetable shortening (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Line a 9x13 inch pan with parchment paper and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  • In a medium sized bowl, beat together butter, sugar, and vanilla. Add the flour. Beat at medium speed until mixture comes together. Press the dough into the bottom of the pan. Lightly flour your fingers to prevent sticking.
  • Prick the crust with a fork and and bake for 35-40 minutes or until edges and top are lightly golden brown. Remove from oven and let it cool completely.
  • Melt the caramel and cream over low heat in small saucepan. Pour the caramel over the cooled crust. Pop into the fridge for 30 minutes to set.
  • Melt the chocolate and shortening (if using) in a small saucepan over low heat. Pour over the caramel layer and chill until set.
  • Cut into squares and enjoy!
  • *To speed up the process I melted caramel and chocolate in microwave. Stir in 30 second increments until smooth and creamy to avoid burning.

HOMEMADE TWIX BARS



Homemade Twix Bars image

Homemade Twix Bars have a crunchy cookie base, a smooth caramel center, and a rich chocolate coating. They taste better than the store-bought ones.

Provided by Elizabeth LaBau

Categories     Dessert     Candy

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

For the Cookie Base :
5 1/2 ounces butter (softened)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 cups cake flour (can substitute 2 cups all-purpose flour minus 4 tablespoons)
1/2 teaspoon salt
For the Caramel Layer :
21 ounces soft caramels (unwrapped)
2 to 3 tablespoons heavy cream​
For Chocolate Coating :
1 pound semisweet chocolate or chocolate-flavored candy coating

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Heat the oven to 350 F. Prepare a 13-by-9-inch baking pan by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray .
  • Place the butter and the granulated sugar in the bowl of a large mixer and beat them together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the flour and salt. Mix on low speed just until the flour is incorporated.
  • Scrape the dough into the prepared pan and use your hands to press it into a thin, even layer.
  • Bake the shortbread for a total of 18 to 20 minutes, turning halfway through so it cooks evenly. When it is finished, it should be a light golden brown color. Don't overcook it or it will be very crumbly. Allow the shortbread to cool completely.
  • Gather the ingredients and make the caramel layer while the shortbread is cooling.
  • Place the unwrapped caramels in a large microwave-safe bowl with 2 tablespoons of cream. If your caramels are very stiff, you might want to increase the cream by an additional spoonful. This candy bar works best if the caramel is not too hard or chewy, so adding some cream when melting the caramels helps make it silky smooth.
  • Microwave the caramels until melted and smooth, stirring after every 30 seconds to incorporate the cream and prevent overheating.
  • Pour the melted caramel over the shortbread cookie crust and smooth it into an even layer. Refrigerate the pan to set the caramel completely, about 1 hour.
  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Melt the chocolate or candy coating in a microwave-safe bowl and stir until completely smooth.
  • Remove the caramel-covered bars from the pan by using the foil as handles.
  • Cut the bars into thin, finger-width sizes. It helps to cut the entire sheet of bars in half width-wise, then cut about 10 bars from each half, for a total of about 20 long, thin bars. You can vary the size to suit your needs. Use a large, sharp knife to prevent the cookie base from crumbling.
  • Use dipping tools or forks, dip the bars in the melted chocolate, covering them completely. Place the dipped bars on a foil-lined tray and repeat until all bars are dipped.
  • Refrigerate the tray to set the chocolate, about 10 minutes.

TWIX BARS RECIPE



Twix Bars Recipe image

These bars have a delicious shortbread crust, a homemade caramel center, and a delicious chocolate top. They taste just like a twix candy bar!

Provided by Steph Loaiza

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup sugar
1¼ cups flour
⅔ cup butter (softened)
½ cup butter
½ cup brown sugar
2 Tablespoons corn syrup
½ cup sweetened condensed milk
2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 x 9 inch pan with cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, mix together sugar and flour, and cut the 2/3 cup butter in with a butter knife. Keep cutting it in the mixture until it has formed evenly-sized crumbs.
  • Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, and bake for 20 minutes - until the edges start to turn a golden brown.
  • Remove from oven and let it cool completely.
  • In a sauce pan over medium heat, combine the 1/2 cup butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, and sweetened condensed milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly (you don't want the mixture to burn, so keep stirring). Continue stirring for 5 more minutes, then remove from heat and stir for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  • Pour the caramel mixture over the shortbread crust. Let it cool (I sped up this process by placing it in the fridge) until the caramel mixture starts to firm.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, mix together the chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave for 1 minute, and then remove and stir. Continue to microwave the chocolate mixture in 15 second intervals until it is completely smooth.
  • Pour chocolate over top the caramel layer and let it cool.
  • Once the chocolate has hardened, cut into squares with a warm knife (that will make them cut cleaner).
