Back in college I was sent a care package filled with various kinds of cookies. My favorite in the tin was a TWIX stuffed cookie that was soft, chewy, crunchy and chocolaty all at the same time.
10 years later I still remember that cookie and how scrumptious it was but have never attempted to replicate it. My main reason for not attempting was because the thought of unwrapping all of the mini TWIX bars was daunting.
Yesterday I was grocery shopping at Wal Mart for Memorial Day party supplies and a gentleman was doing a demo on TWIX Bites #EatMoreBites #CollectiveBias

I should have taken a selfie so you could have seen how excited I was but knew that would have made me look even crazier.
I headed down the candy and juice isle to grab a bag and found it right where the gentleman said it would be.
I bought one bag simply because I love TWIX and was trying to show self-control. Plus, when you have three kiddos shopping with you you have to say no to junk food a lot so I was trying to set a good example.
Later that night I went back to Wal Mart without kiddos to grab a few more bags of TWIX Bites as well as a few ingredients needed to finally attempt to replicate the TWIX Stuffed Cookies Recipe.
They turned out perfect and tasted just as I had remembered them! I am in charge of dessert for Memorial Day so guess what I will be taking?!
Simple and delicious means it will be a crowd pleaser for all.
Below you will find the recipe so you can make and enjoy them too!
