Tasty but so rich! Used homemade dulce de leche and used it sparingly. Using the dark chocolate helps to not add too much sweetness; I think a milk chocolate would be too sweet. I added a little salt to the cookie mixture to give it a little more of a salty taste to offset the sweet.

Yes! So good! Twix bars are my absolute favorite candy bar, and these tasted almost exactly the same! Sooo good for the tastebuds, but sooo bad for the waistline :/

Renee, Shal, kitchenphobe and AMC- Thanks folks! I hope you like them.

Amy- I’m not sure what happened for you. If you click through on the related blog post, you can see what my shortbread dough looks like prior to forming and baking. It’s dry and crumbly. That’s so wild. And the greasing of the tin is a prophylactic- my tin grabs like wild which is why I specified that. I hope it works better for you next time. I’m so sorry it didn’t work out the first time.

I love this idea, so of course I had to try it. I attempted the “cookie” portion of this recipe last night. The dough looked too wet for shortbread after adding the 2 c of flour. I should have gone with my gut and added more, but I didn’t. The cookies came out very oily and wet. It also didn’t help that I greased the mini muffin tin with butter per the recipe’s instruction. I think if I had left out that step, they wouldn’t have been as greasy.

I’m going to try this again and keep a better eye on my dough the next time around. I just can’t give up on it yet. I love Twix bars. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
