Ingredients

  • 72 MINI Nilla Wafer cookies (can use regular sized as well)
  • 1 7-ounce bag of Rolos unwrapped
  • 8 ounces chocolate chips or melting chocolate wafers
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional to add with chocolate chips when melting)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 300 degrees.
  • Place 36 mini Nilla wafer cookies onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Place a Rolo candy in the center of each one.
  • Heat in oven for 90 seconds.
    Note: DO NOT heat longer than 90 seconds. You want the Rolo only slightly soft. I've experimented with 3 minutes, 2 minutes and 1 minute. 90 seconds was the sweet spot.
  • Remove from the oven and place another cookie on top of each Rolo candy. We're NOT squishing or flattening the Rolo, just adding a cookie on top and slightly pressing down.
  • Immediately chill the tray of cookies in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes, or until chocolate has set.
  • Melt chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave. You can use melting chocolate wafers or chocolate chips.
    Note: if using chocolate chips you can add a teaspoon of coconut oil if you'd like to thin them out a little.
  • Dip cookie sandwiches into chocolate using a chocolate dipper tool or fork. Tap the tool or fork against the side of the bowl to allow the excess chocolate to drip off before transferring the cookie back to the baking sheet.
  • Refrigerate cookies until the chocolate has hardened.

Notes

Store homemade Twix bites in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Note: if using regular-sized Nilla wafers you may need a little more chocolate.
