Twix Cookies are one of the most popular cookies because who can resist a crispy cookie with a layer of creamy caramel and rich chocolate. These are simple cake mix cookies that will turn into your new favorite treat. Twix cookies feature (like the candy bar) a cookie with caramel and then chocolate of course! You could sort of re-fabricate this recipe into actual Twix bars, but it’s much easier to just dollop the caramel and the chocolate on top of the cookies!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Caramel Consistency Magic 🍯
Melt caramels with a splash of heavy cream to create a smoother, more spreadable layer that won't harden immediately on the cookies.
Cake Mix Cookie Hack 🍪
Add an extra egg yolk to the vanilla cake mix to create a richer, more tender cookie base that mimics a shortbread texture.
Chocolate Drizzle Perfection 🍫
Use a squeeze bottle or piping bag for more precise and professional-looking chocolate drizzles, ensuring even coverage on each cookie.
Cooling Technique Mastery ❄️
Allow cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before adding caramel and chocolate to prevent melting and maintain distinct layers.
Texture Preservation Trick 🧊
Briefly chill the cookies after adding caramel to help it set quickly, preventing it from sliding off when adding the chocolate layer.
