TWIX BAR COOKIES

TWIX BAR COOKIES  

(from Your Homebased Mom)

2 cups & 2 Tbs. flour

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

12 Tbs. unsalted butter, melted and cooled until warm

1 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 c sugar

1 large egg plus 1 egg yolk

2 tsp. vanilla

2 cups coarsely chopped Twix Bars

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  Chop Twix Bar into 1/4 inch chunks.  Cut each bar in half lengthwise and then into 1/4 inch width wise.  In a bowl combine flour, soda, and salt.  Set aside.  With mixer, blend butter and sugars until combined.  Beat in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla.  Add in remaining dry ingredients and beat until just combined.  Fold in Twix Bar chunks.  Bake for 13-16 minutes until light golden brown and edges start to harden but center is soft.  Do not over bake.  Because of the caramel in the Twix they may stick a bit to the cookie sheet.  Remove with spatula.
