Twix cookies are caramelly and crunchy.  I had to laugh because my son ate one of the cookies before I got the caramel and chocolate on them.  He told me that they weren’t very flavorful.  After the cookies were all done, he changed his tune.  He said “hey mom these cookies are really good, a lot better than just plain.”

Sometimes things are just plain worth the work and the wait.  I am pretty sure that everyone who tastes your cookies will think that you are amazing and they will want your recipe.
