HOW TO MAKE THE BEST TWIX COOKIES - TikTok’s Viral CRUMBL Copycat Recipe

Let's learn how to make TikTok's viral crumb cookies at home and even better! They're so fun to make and taste like your favorite Twix Chocolate.

TWIX COOKIE DOUGH
2 3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
2/3 cup white sugar
3/4 cup light brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cup chopped Twix pieces

CARAMEL LAYER
11 ounces caramels (1package of Kraft Caramels)
3 tablespoons heavy cream

CHOCOLATE LAYER
2 cups milk chocolate chips

OPTIONAL: flakey sea salt for sprinkling on top.

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together all purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, add the unsalted butter, white sugar, and light brown sugar. Cream together the butter and sugar for 2 to 3 minutes on medium speed until light and fluffy using the paddle attachment on a stand mixer or using a hand mixer. Scrape the sides of the bowl down.
3. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat again for 1 to 2 more minutes until the consistency is smooth.
4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix just until combined and a dough comes together.
5. Finally, add the chopped Twix and give it a quick gentle mix to incorporate it throughout the cookie dough.
6. Cover the dough and refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes.
7. Preheat oven to 375°F.
8. After the dough has chilled, use an ice cream scoop to scoop out equal portions of the dough. This recipe makes about 20.
9. Place 6 cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet at a time. Bake for 8 to 9 minutes. I baked for 8 minutes!
10. Once it comes out of the oven, I like to bang the pan a few times to create a crinkle effect. This is optional.
11. Allow the cookies to set on the tray for 5 to 10 minutes before moving them off.
12. Once all the cookies are baked, transfer to a large tray and cover it. Pop it in the fridge or freezer for them to just become cold - about 20 to 30 minutes.
13. Meanwhile, make the caramel and chocolate layer.
14. To make the caramel layer: add the soft caramels and heavy cream to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second intervals, mixing in between each interval until it is completely melted and smooth. This took me 2 intervals for a total of 1 minute.
15. Take the cookies out of the fridge or freezer. Add about 1 to 2 tablespoons of caramel on top of the cookie and spread a bit with the back of a spoon but don’t cover the whole cookie. Leave the edges exposed. Pop in the fridge for 10 minutes to allow the caramel to firm up.
15. To make the chocolate layer: just add the milk chocolate chips to a microwave safe bowl. On 50% power, microwave in 30 second intervals, mixing in between each interval until it is completely melted and smooth. This took me 2 intervals for a total of 1 minute.
17. Then place a small spoonful of the chocolate on top of the caramel layer and spread it evenly.
18. Optional, sprinkle a tiny bit of flakey sea salt on top.
19. Pop in the fridge for 10 minutes or until the chocolate hardens.
20. Enjoy chilled just like CRUMBL! To store, transfer to an airtight container and keep in the fridge.
