Cookie Dough Twix Recipe Instructions
**Preheat Oven:** Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal. Or use binder clips on the sides. **Combine Dry Ingredients:** In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup almond flour and 1/2 cup tapioca starch. **Add Wet Ingredients:** To the dry mix, add 1/4 cup maple syrup and 1/4 cup softened refined coconut oil. Stir until the mixture forms a cohesive dough. **Press into Pan:** Transfer the dough to your prepared baking pan. Press it down firmly and evenly with your hands or the back of a spoon to form the crust layer. Poke holes with a fork **Bake:** Place in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely in the pan. Cookie Dough Layer:
**Mix Dry Ingredients:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup almond flour and 1/3 cup tapioca starch.
**Sweeten:** Stir in 4-5 tablespoons of maple syrup (adjust according to your sweetness preference) and 2 tablespoons coconut sugar until well combined.
**Add Fat:** Incorporate 1/4 cup of softened coconut oil or palm oil shortening. Mix until you have a thick, cookie dough consistency. If dough is crumbly add one more tbsp of coconut oil
**Layer Over Crust:** Once the shortbread crust has cooled, spread the cookie dough layer evenly over the top. Use a spatula or your hands to smooth out the layer.
Chill bars for 30 minutes until firm. Then, remove from freeezer and cut into bars.
Chocolate Topping:
**Melt Chocolate:** In a small saucepan or in the microwave, gently melt 2 cups of chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Stir until smooth.
**dip the bars in chocolate :** dip each bar into the chocolate mixture using a large fork
**Chill:** Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill until the chocolate layer is firm and set.
#### Tips:
- For an extra smooth chocolate layer, consider tempering the chocolate or using a double boiler to melt it gently.
- If the cookie dough layer seems too soft to spread, chill it in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes before spreading.
