Shh, can you hear that? That is the sweet sound of my dreams coming true. Some blessed soul just uploaded the greatest tutorial of all time which I, obviously, bookmarked faster than anything I’ve ever bookmarked before. Elise, the girl behind the ‘My Cupcake Addiction’ YouTube Channel just showed the world how to create a giant Twix bar with just three ingredients and 30 minutes! What’s more, there’s no baking involved whatsoever! Elise for President! If you don’t know what a Twix bar is – first, please accept a minute of intense scorn from my side. Second, listen up. It’s this God-sent candy bar that’s made by the Mars Company here on earth. It has three layers, I like to call it the trifecta of deliciousness. It’s a lovely bar with layer after layer of chocolate, gooey caramel and a crunchy biscuit. Here’s a little chocolate history. It was first introduced in United Kingdom in 1967 and in United States in 1979. For a long time, Twix was called ‘Raider’ in a dozen or so countries before they changed it to the original name.
Back to the good stuff. The mighty recipe that’s a good enough solution for world peace.
Ingredients
375g good quality milk chocolate
A bag of caramel chews
30 shortbread biscuits
Long tin
Baking paper Method
Line your tin with the baking paper with one large piece of paper at the bottom and two small pieces at either end. Melt chocolate and pour it in the tin about 1cm thick. Spoon the chocolate to level it out in the tin to push it out to all the corners. Pop the tin in the fridge to set. After the chocolate in the tin has set, melt the caramel in the microwave for 90 seconds and spoon it on top of the chocolate layer. Add one layer of shortbread biscuits on top of the caramel. Pop it back in the fridge to let that caramel set. Once it’s set, add another layer of melted caramel on top of the biscuits. And then, add another layer of biscuits on top of the caramel. When your next layer of biscuits is in place, pour in the melted chocolate. Set it in the fridge for about 2 hours or so. Once it’s out of the fridge, peel off the baking paper and pour in another layer of chocolate all over because there’s nothing like too much chocolate. All this text might seem a little confusing so it's best to watch the five minute video and see how incredibly easy it really is! It's basically just a layering job. Ah, there's peaceful balance in the world again for you can make your very own Twix bar in your kitchen.
