Tastes like a homemade Twix bar in cookie form
Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
20–24 mini Twix bars, unwrapped and cut in half
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Step 2: Cream the Butter and Sugars
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until light and fluffy — about 2–3 minutes.
Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients
Mix in the vanilla extract and eggs until smooth and fully incorporated.
Step 4: Add Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a soft cookie dough forms.
Step 5: Shape the Cookies
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough, flatten it slightly in your palm, and place a halved Twix bar in the center.
Wrap the dough around the candy, rolling it into a smooth ball. Make sure the Twix is completely covered.
Step 6: Bake
Arrange the cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches of space between each one.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges are just turning golden.
Step 7: Cool & Finish
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Pro Tip
For an extra touch of indulgence, drizzle the cooled cookies with melted chocolate or dip half of each cookie for that signature Twix shine!
Final Thoughts
These Twix Cookies are soft, buttery, and filled with caramel-chocolate goodness — the perfect treat for cookie swaps, holiday parties, or a cozy night in. Serve them with a glass of cold milk, and watch them disappear in no time! 🍪✨
