How to Make Decadent Twix Cookies

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a stand mixer, combine 1 ½ cups softened unsalted butter and 1 cup powdered sugar. Add in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, mixing until fluffy. Gradually incorporate 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour and ¼ teaspoon of salt until a soft dough forms.
• Roll the dough out to about ¼ to ½ inch thick and cut out circles with a cookie cutter or glass, placing them on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges turn golden brown. Allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
• In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 11 oz caramel bits and 1 tablespoon of heavy cream. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth. Spoon this caramel onto cooled cookies and let it set.
• Combine 2 cups milk chocolate chips with 2 teaspoon of coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second bursts until fully melted and smooth. Spread the chocolate over the caramel and allow to cool until firm.
