Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Make the Cookie Dough
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
3. Shape the Cookies
- Take about a tablespoon of dough and flatten it slightly in your hand. Place a small spoonful of caramel sauce and a few crushed Twix pieces in the center, then fold the dough around the filling and roll it back into a ball.
- Place the filled cookie dough ball on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
4. Bake the Cookies
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The cookies may look slightly underbaked in the center, but they will continue to cook as they cool.
5. Prepare the Chocolate Topping
- While the cookies are cooling, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring in between until smooth. If desired, mix in vegetable oil for a thinner consistency.
6. Drizzle and Serve
- Once the cookies are completely cooled, drizzle the melted chocolate over the tops. For an extra touch, you can sprinkle additional crushed Twix on top while the chocolate is still warm.
- Allow the chocolate to set before serving.
Tips for the Perfect Twix Cookies
- Crushed Twix Bars: You can crush the Twix bars in a resealable plastic bag with a rolling pin for easy preparation.
- Caramel Sauce: For an extra layer of flavor, consider making homemade caramel sauce if you have the time!
