Vegan Twix

I have a major sweet tooth, and one of the things that I love about living a healthy lifestyle is being more creative at finding the foods that I love that are healthier alternatives. I always come across so many Twix recipes, and since I have a little more time on my hands. I decided to put a little twist on this old favorite. Below, I'm sharing a super easy, yummy recipe for making vegan Twix at home. 

Are you a fan of Twix candy bars? 

Recipe

Base Layer:

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup 
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • Pinch of salt


Caramel Layer: 

  • 1 tbsp almond butter
  • 10-11 dates
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • Pinch of salt
  • Some water


Raw Chocolate Coating: 

  • 1/2 cup raw cacao powder
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil


INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Combine the base ingredients and mix until you obtain a consistent mixture. 
  2. Spread over a small baking tray lined with parchment paper and press the mixture onto the bottom of the tray.
  3. Bake in the oven at 350 for 10-15 minutes or until the base turns light brown. Allow cooling.
  4. While the base is in the oven, you can start preparing the caramel layer. Soak the dates in warm water for about ten minutes. Add the dates and the rest of the caramel layer ingredients to a food processor/blender and blend them until you get a creamy consistency. 
  5. Spread the caramel layer over the cooled base. Freeze for 30-45 minutes or until the caramel starts to harden.
  6. Cut it into bars of the desired size and place the bars back in the freezer for 10-15 minutes. 
  7. While the bars are in the freezer mix the cacao and coconut oil well. 
  8. Dip each bar in the melted chocolate and set aside to dry. 
  9. Freeze the bars for about 10-15 minutes.
