A new follow for me on Instagram is Stacy_simmons made these gluten free, dairy free, refined sugar twix bars. I had to try them! They looked really good. One thing about being home so much is I have been baking more. Baking is not my thing. I would rather cook a full meal over baking. Maybe I will become a baker now. lol
The boys love to bake with me. It's usually easier to let them bake then to have them help cook a meal. As soon as I pull the mixer out Cash comes running and pushing a chair over to the counter.
Cookie Bottom:
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 cup almond flour
1/3 cup coconut oil
3 tablespoons honey warmed
Put in a small pan lined with parchment paper. You will need to pack this down tightly onto the parchment paper. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes.
Completely cook before you add the next layer.
When I pulled it out of the oven I was afraid I forgot an egg or something because it seemed crumbly. Once it cooled it wasn't crumbly at all.
Middle Caramel Layer:
1/2 cup almond butter
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
sprinkle salt
Stir in a sauce pan over low heat until it all liquefies. Let it cool before you add it to the cookie layer. Spread it evenly over the cookie layer and put it in the freezer for 2-3 hours.
Chocolate Layer:
I used 1/2 cup of Enjoy Life dark chocolate chips
1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
Melt in a sauce pan over low heat. After the chocolate has melted pour over the top of the cookie and caramel layer. Sprinkle the top with kosher salt.
I put these back in the freezer for about 10 minutes before I cut them into squares. After I cut them into squares I put them into a zip lock bag and keep them in the freezer. If you take them out for a couple minutes you are able to eat them. These bars melt quickly, so you don't want to leave them out.
My final verdict is they don't really taste like a twix, but they are sure yummy! Let me know if you make these and what you think!!
