Description

Vanilla wafer cookies topped with sweet, sticky caramel and a rich chocolate coating make Homemade Twix Bites irresistible!


Ingredients

  • 24 caramel squares
  • 24 round vanilla wafer cookies
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 250°F. Unwrap and place the caramels a few inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet on the middle rack of the preheated oven for 5 minutes to soften the caramels. They should not melt. They should just soften so that you can reshape them.
  2. Meanwhile, arrange the vanilla wafer cookies, bottom sides up, on a small parchment-lined sheet pan that will fit in your freezer.
  3. Remove the caramels from the oven and while they’re still warm slightly flatten each caramel into a circle shape that will fit the size of the wafer cookies. Place each flattened caramel on top of each cookie on the sheet pan.
  4. Place the sheet pan of bites in the freezer for 15 minutes to flash freeze them.
  5. When you’re ready to coat the bites in chocolate, place 1 cup of the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30 seconds intervals until melted and smooth, stirring between each interval.
  6. Remove half of the flash frozen bites from the freezer. Using a fork, dip and coat each bite completely in the melted chocolate, letting any excess chocolate drip back into the bowl before transferring the coated bite to a parchment-lined sheet pan.
  7. Repeat with the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips and remaining bites that are in the freezer.
  8. Let the bites set at room temperature until the chocolate is completely set. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
