Before we talk about Twix Caramel Cookie Bars, I have some exciting news to share! Tomorrow I am flying to New York City with Land O’ Lakes. I am going to be on the TODAY show with Kathie Lee and Hoda on Thursday! I just found out on Friday so I am rushing around like a mad woman trying to get ready for my trip. I have to find something to wear, I need a manicure, and a haircut! I am a little nervous, but I am mostly excited because I get to be on with two of my blogging friends, Ree and Bridget. Make sure you tune in on Thursday to see our cooking segment!

Ok, now let’s talk dessert. Do you still have Easter candy lingering around? We really didn’t buy Caleb much Easter candy, but the after Easter sales got me. I stocked up on Cadbury Mini Eggs, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, and Twix candy bars. I can’t resist a good sale on all of my favorite candies. Plus, I have been craving Twix bars like mad! I guess this baby has a sweet tooth like his mama:)

I used some of our Twix Candy Bars to create a spectacular dessert, Twix Caramel Cookie Bars. That’s right, a chocolate chip cookie bar with Twix candy bars AND salted caramel sauce. Is your mouth watering yet? 🙂

The hardest part about this recipe is chopping up the candy bars and NOT eating them all. It took some major will power to save the Twix candy bars for the cookie bars.

I also drizzled salted caramel sauce over the bars before baking. I used a toothpick to swirl the caramel into the bars. I used our homemade salted caramel sauce, but you can use store bought caramel sauce if you want. I like Trader Joe’s salted caramel sauce when I am in a pinch.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sea salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix the melted butter and sugars together until combined. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until smooth. Slowly add the dry ingredients and mix on low, just until combined. Stir in the chopped Twix candy bars and chocolate chips.
  • Pour cookie dough into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with the spatula. Drizzle caramel sauce over the bars. Swirl caramel sauce into the cookie bars with a toothpick. Use a knife to smooth over the bars and spread in the caramel. Sprinkle cookie bars very lightly with sea salt.
  • Bake cookie bars for 30-35 minutes or until the top of the bars are light golden brown and the edges start to pull away from the pan. Cool bars on a wire rack to room temperature. Cut bars into squares and serve.

  1. Oh my god, so exciting about you being on the Today show! I’m marking my calendar right now!

  2. This receipe calls for salted or unsalted butter?

    And congrats on the Today show – I am sure it went fabulously 😉

  3. Congratulations on the Today show! I have it on my DVR to watch. I’m sure you were awesome!

  4. How fun to see you on the show today!!! These bars look completely tempting. Twix is one of my favorite candy bars!

  5. Hi! I’ve never commented on this site before, but I have been following you for a couple of months now.

    Congrats on your t.v. appearance. I kept on checking my nbc to see when u were on. It was nice to see u on. I think ur baby bump is so cute. 🙂 And those scones looked very delish.

    All the best!

  6. Woweeeeee!! This pure biscuity-bar bliss!! And the pic with the ice cream…drop dead deliciousness. Thanks for the idea! 🙂

  7. Have just made this Twix slice and it turned out beautifully. I did have to adjust temperature on my convection oven as 325F/150c was way too slow,( I wasn’t sure if that was the temp for fan forced ovens?) so upped temp to 170c which is the usual temp I cook my bars & slices at. Hubby has given it the thumbs up, he is eating it whilst it is still very hot straight out of oven! I substituted raw sugar for the granulated sugar, chopped up white choc melts in place of milk chips and used a brandy caramel sauce I had hiding in cupboard.
    Does anyone know if this can be frozen as it turned out far bigger than I imagined and don’t want hubby to snuffle through the whole tray, as I don’t eat chocolate.
    Thanks for another great recipe!

  8. Could I half this recipe to be put into an 8×8 pan? Also any other ways/ideas to use up leftover salted caramel sauce?

    1. Yes, you can half the recipe. Search our site for salted caramel and you will find lots of ideas:) Enjoy!

  9. I think one needs to leave out te baking soda. I got a cake in stead of a cookie. Such a shame…

  10. I haven’t tried this yet, but boy do I want to and can’t wait until I do. I was wondering if these will ship well and what would be the best way to ship them?
