Copycat TWIX® Recipe
If I were forced to pick out what recipe really took my family by surprise, was gone in record time, and was super addicting, it would be this chocolate peanut butter bar recipe.
It’s supposed to be a copycat recipe for popular candy bar TWIX® but the homemade version is just amazing!
Easy to assemble, Kid #1 and I worked together. He laid out the crackers, I poured the ingredients over the top. It was fun and the result is one of our new favorite dessert recipes. Seriously. From 2/2013 edition of Family Circle.
