This Twix Cake is a masterpiece. It is a take on the Twix Candy Bar but it is actually a simple poke cake. It’s simple but so very delicious. The Twix Cake recipe starts with a box cake mixed then it is enhanced with chocolate and caramel, making it the ultimate Twix dessert. Making Twix cake with the poke method is great because the chocolate, caramel, and other deliciousness ends up all the way throughout the cake!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Precision Poking Technique 🕳️
Use the handle end of a wooden spoon to create uniform, evenly spaced holes that extend to the bottom of the cake, ensuring maximum sauce penetration.
Twix Bar Prep Perfection 🍫
Freeze Twix bars for 10-15 minutes before chopping to prevent crumbling and achieve clean, precise cuts for topping.
Layering Liquid Magic 💧
Pour condensed milk and caramel sauce slowly and alternately to create a marbled effect and ensure even distribution throughout the cake.
Chill for Flavor Fusion 🧊
Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours after adding sauces to allow flavors to meld and create a more cohesive dessert experience.
Crumble Coating Technique 🍽️
Crush some Twix bars into fine crumbs and some into larger chunks to create a textural contrast when sprinkling over the whipped topping.
