Recipes for Disaster: Homemade Twix Bars

This easy to make no-bake dessert comes from my mom’s recipe vault.

Several years back I asked her to send me this specific recipe because I remember the bars tasting so good when I was a teenager. But you know how your mind works and how your tastes change as you age.

Well, I have good news to report… decades later, this recipe did not disappoint.

INGREDIENTS:

-1 cup of crushed graham crackers (6 sheets)
-1/2 cup butter
-1/2 cup milk
-3/4 cup brown sugar
-1/2 cup white sugar
-2/3 cup peanut butter (creamy or smooth)
-1 cup chocolate chips
-Club crackers

DIRECTIONS:

1. Grease 9×13 pan.
2. Line pan with a layer of Club crackers
3. In a sauce pan, mix together crushed graham crackers, butter, milk, brown sugar and white sugar.
4. While constantly stirring, bring mixture to a boil for several minutes until it thickens and smells caramelly.
5. Pour mixture over crackers.
6. Add another layer of Club crackers over the caramel mixture.
7. Melt peanut butter and chocolate chips together in the microwave.
8. Mix that together well and pour the melted PB and chocolate over the crackers.
9. Refrigerate.

NOTE: Take the dessert out of the fridge for 5 minutes for easier cutting.
