Rich Man’s Twix
The Rich Man’s Twix is my take on the millionaire, billionaire, whatever-ionaire bar. Each bite is full of unforgettable deliciousness.
Rich Man’s Twix
This decadent, layered dessert features a buttery shortbread base, a silky caramel, and a top layer of chocolate ganache.
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 350F and line a 9×9 inch baking dish with parchment paper
Shortbread Crust
- For the shortbread crust: Sift the flour into a large bowl. Then, sift in the powdered sugar and salt. Whisk together. Melt the butter and combine it in the bowl until crumbly.
- Pour in the crumble mixture into the lined baking dish. Pat down the mixture with your hands. Bake for 20 minutes or until it is a light golden brown. Set aside to cool.
Caramel Layer
- In a saucepan, combine the butter, brown sugar, salt, vanilla, sweetened condensed milk and corn syrup.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk until melted and combined. Continue whisking over the heat while the caramel bubbles and darkens to a richer color. DO NOT stop whisking until the caramel is ready (~5 mins). The caramel is ready once it reaches 225F and starts to thicken and pull away from the edges. Remove from heat.
- Pour the caramel layer over the shortbread crust and smooth to create a flat layer. Let chill until caramel sets (~10 mins).
Chocolate Layer
- Chop chocolate and melt with cream either in a double boiler or microwaving in 15-30 second intervals, stirring in between. Pour the chocolate over the caramel and smooth into an even layer. Sprinkle with sea salt and let chill.
- Cut into small rectangles to serve. Enjoy!
