Want a little sweetness on this day. What could be better than savoring caramel and chocolate ! This vegan version of the famous Twix bars is ​​awesome. The explosion in the mouth of dark chocolate followed by the caramel that melts, with a base flavored with coconut (you can omit this coconut fragrance if you don’t like replacing it with another powder or flour) and the little touch that makes all the difference, salt! The perfect counter balance, believe me :). These bars are really DELICIOUS, EASY to make and above all GLUTEN FREE.

Usually, I’m not a big fan of adding salt to cookies or bars as decoration, but frankly, I succumbed. I find the contrast striking. At worst, if you don’t like it, all you have to do is flick it over to remove the salt or not put it at all.

At the moment, I want to eat a little healthier, not that it is not generally the case, but I also make deviations like everyone else :). And right now, it’s a lot of deviations. I have to resonate a little. Unfortunately, for a girl like me who likes sweet things, it’s quite difficult. I can’t finish a meal without a touch of sweetness.

Vegan Twix Bars Basics

There are only 4 ingredients, which means extreme simplicity. You surely understand, we will have to combine them. So, you start by placing the dry ingredients in the blender if you have one, if not in a bowl (it also works), you stir a little. Then, you add the liquid ingredients. Mix again. At the end, you should get a dough that holds when you press it.

Then just spread it in your mold and equalize it to have a uniform surface of the same thickness. The next step is to place the mold in a cool place so that the coconut oil hardens on contact with the cold and freezes the entire base.

For Twix Caramel

There, it becomes a little bit more complex. In two seconds you could end up with a burnt caramel. I speak from experience :). When I made this recipe, I tackled the caramel and head up in the air sometimes, I did not think of mixing and staying next to the pan. Suddenly, I smell a burning smell. I rush to my pan and misery! My caramel was ruined. So lesson number 1 of the day: Stay by the pan and watch out :).

So, you just have to put all the ingredients in the pan, stir and then you have to heat between low and medium heat. You need to heat until an amber color forms. Then, you turn off the heat, pour the caramel on the base. Crucial step, keep everything cool for a few hours so that the caramel freezes or overnight.

Ingredients

1 Cup of Almond Flour

3/4 Cup of Coconut, Shredded

1 Tbsp of Agave Syrup

3 Tbsp of Coconut Oil

9 oz of Dark Vegan Chocolate

For Caramel

1/2 Cup and 3 Tbsp of Almond Butter

3 Tbsp of Golden Syrup

1 Tbsp of Coconut Oil

Instructions

Using your blender, pour the almond powder, the coconut and stir. Then add the agave syrup and the coconut oil and mix.

You should get a dough that holds when you press it between your fingers. If necessary, if the preparation seems too dry, add a little more liquids and vice versa.

Prepare a square mold by covering it with parchment paper.

Spread the preparation in the bottom of the mold evenly.

Place in the fridge so that the base hardens.

THE CARAMEL

In a saucepan, pour all the ingredients. Stir and cook for a few minutes, watching carefully. Be careful, the golden syrup burns quickly, so be careful not to miss your caramel.

Then pour it on the base and place in the fridge for a few hours or ideally overnight so that it freezes.

COATING

Melt chocolate in a microwave. Pour it over the caramel. Place in the fridge to solidify.

Cut your bars (to prevent the chocolate from breaking, pass the blade of a knife under hot water between each cutting of bars. Coat the missing sides with chocolate.

Place the Twix bars back in the fridge.
