Easy Twix Cups

This version of the classic Twix with its delicious crumbly bottom, salted caramel, and chocolate is not only just as delicious but super easy to make, wholesome, vegan, gluten free, and basically suitable for everyone regardless of allergy.

Ingredients

Scale

Bottom

  • 100g / 3,5 oz oat and/or nut flour of choice (I used 70g oat flour and 30g almond flour)
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • A pinch of salt
  • 4 tbsp liquid sweetener of choice
  • 2 tbsp nut butter of choice

Caramel

  • 200g / 7 oz pitted dates* (I peeled mine for looks)
  • 3 tbsp nut butter of choice
  • Two hearty pinches of salt
  • A splash of vanilla
  • 13 tbsp water depending on your dates moisture

Chocolate Ganache

  • 120g / 4,2 oz dark chocolate
  • 4 tbsp water
  • A hearty pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 150ºC / 300ºF and line a muffin or cookie pan with 12 muffin liners.
  2. In a bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl combine the liquid sweetener and nut butter. Add the wet to the dry and mix until you get a nice “dough”. It should be quite moist and not crumbly.
  3. Divide the dough between the liners. Using your hands, evenly press out to all corners and prick with a fork. Bake for 16-18 minutes or until golden. Let cool.
  4. While the bottoms are baking, prepare the caramel by mixing the dates, nut butter, salt, and vanilla smooth in a food processor. If too dry, add a splash or two of water.
  5. Divide the caramel between the muffin liners and spread smoothly to all corners. Let firm up in the freezer for at least 3 hours.
  6. In a small microwave-safe bowl, put the dark chocolate, water, and salt. Microwave on low to medium effect for 30 second intervals until the chocolate has almost completely melted. Once melted enough, mix until you get a smooth ganache. Pour and spread the ganache on top of the caramel layer. Then put them in the freezer until the ganache has set. Enjoy!

Notes

*If your dates are very dry, soak them in warm water for at least an hours or more.
