Twix Cookie Cups

Course Dessert
Prep Time 45 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Servings 12

Ingredients

  • 1 pound of chocolate chip cookie dough
  • 1/2 cup of melted milk or semi-sweet chocolate
  • 11- ounce bag of Kraft caramels
  • 4 tablespoons of heavy cream
  • Flakey sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • Take a nonstick cupcake baking tray and put about 3 tablespoons of cookie dough into each cup.
  • Shape the dough into small bowl-like cups. Adjust the amount of dough as needed.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges turn golden.
  • After baking, the cups might puff up. Use a spoon to press down the center and edges to reform the cup shape.
  • Let them cool down to room temperature.
  • Once cooled, make the caramel filling. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the soft caramels and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth (usually 2 to 3 intervals).
  • Fill each cup with 1 to 2 tablespoons of caramel and let it set for 15 minutes.
  • Now, melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl at 50% power, stirring in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  • Spread a thin layer of chocolate over the caramel and sprinkle with salt.
  • Chill in the fridge for 10 minutes until the chocolate sets.
  • Remove the cookie cups from the tray and indulge!
