My daughter and I love this recipe. I let her make it last time and she did awesome! If you love Twix, you'll love this recipe!

Very good & easy. Used regular Kraft carmels. My store didn't have the bits. Tastes like twix. I kept them in the fridge & left them sit out for alittle to soften. Otherwise the chocolate was to soft.

Never heard of the cookies they used. Where do you find them or what else can you use?

I wasn't familiar with "caramel bits" so I just used traditional caramels and it made a very gooey and yummy treat! My family loved this dessert!

Decadent and delicious! These taste like a super fresh Twix candy bar with ooey-gooey caramel. My only concern was that the chocolate didn't solidify well which may make them difficult to store/transport. As it turns out, there were none to store at my house!
