How to Make Twix Cookies

Step 1 — Cream the butter & sugars

Beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.

Step 2 — Add vanilla & eggs

Mix in the vanilla extract and eggs until smooth.

Step 3 — Add dry ingredients

Whisk together flour and salt in a separate bowl, then add gradually to the butter mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms.

Step 4 — Shape

Scoop 1–2 tablespoons of dough, flatten it slightly, place a mini Twix in the center, and wrap the dough fully around it. Roll into a smooth ball.

Step 5 — Bake

Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges look set and lightly golden.

Step 6 — Cool

Let cool 5 minutes—Twix centers will be molten!
