Twix Cookies

Ingredients:

For the cookie base:

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

• 1 cup granulated sugar

• 1 large egg

• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

• 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

• ½ teaspoon baking powder

• ¼ teaspoon salt

For the caramel layer:

• 1 cup caramel candies (or soft caramel squares)

• 2 tablespoons heavy cream

For the chocolate topping:

• 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil or butter (optional, for smoother chocolate)

Instructions:

1. Make the cookie base:

   • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

   • In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

   • Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.

   • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the butter mixture, mixing until combined.

   • Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan.

2. Bake the base:
   Bake for about 18–20 minutes, until the edges are golden but the center is still soft. Remove from oven and set aside.

3. Add caramel layer:

   • While the base is baking, melt caramel candies with heavy cream in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth.

   • Spread the warm caramel evenly over the hot cookie base. Let it cool slightly.

4. Add chocolate topping:

   • Melt chocolate chips with vegetable oil or butter in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler until smooth.

   • Pour the chocolate over the caramel layer, spreading evenly.

5. Chill and set:
   Refrigerate the entire pan for at least 2 hours or until the chocolate is firm.

6. Slice and serve:
   Once set, cut into bars or squares and enjoy!
