3-Ingredient Homemade Twix Bites
If you’re looking for a quick and delicious treat that mimics the classic Twix candy, these 3-Ingredient Homemade Twix Bites are perfect! With just mini Nilla Wafers, Rolos, and chocolate, you can whip up these bite-sized delights in no time. They’re the ideal mix of caramel, chocolate, and cookie crunch, making them great for parties, snacks, or whenever you’re craving something sweet.
Ingredients:
- 72 mini Nilla Wafer cookies (regular size can also be used)
- 1 (7-ounce) bag of Rolos, unwrapped
- 8 ounces chocolate chips or melting chocolate wafers
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for melting with chocolate chips)
Directions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Assemble the Twix Bites:
Arrange 36 mini Nilla Wafer cookies on the prepared baking sheet. Place one unwrapped Rolo candy on the center of each cookie.
3. Soften the Rolos:
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and heat the cookies for 90 seconds. This will soften the Rolos just enough to press down without melting them completely.
4. Create the Cookie Sandwiches:
Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Gently place another mini Nilla Wafer on top of each softened Rolo, pressing down slightly to create a sandwich (be careful not to flatten the Rolo completely).
5. Chill the Cookies:
Place the cookie sandwiches in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes until the chocolate inside the Rolo firms up.
6. Dip in Chocolate:
While the cookies chill, melt the chocolate in a double boiler or microwave, stirring until smooth. If you’re using chocolate chips, add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil for a smoother consistency. This will make dipping easier and give the bites a glossy finish.
7. Coat with Chocolate:
Dip each chilled cookie sandwich into the melted chocolate, using a fork or chocolate dipper to ensure even coverage. Gently tap the fork against the side of the bowl to let any excess chocolate drip off. Place the dipped cookies back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
8. Set and Serve:
Refrigerate the dipped cookies again until the chocolate coating is fully hardened. Once set, they’re ready to enjoy!
Quick Tips:
- Easy Variations: Swap out the Nilla Wafers for graham crackers or shortbread cookies for a different texture and flavor.
- Make Ahead: These Twix Bites can be made in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- Fun for Kids: Let kids help assemble the Twix Bites and dip them in chocolate—it’s a fun and easy kitchen project.
