Preparation
Step 1
Line a square 8"x"8" or 9"x9" baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, protein powder, sugar, coconut oil, and milk. Mix until you have a smooth cookie dough.
Step 3
Press the cookie dough into the parchment paper-lined baking pan with your fingers or a spatula until you have one smooth, even layer. Pop the pan into the freezer while you prepare the caramel layer.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, add the cashew butter, maple syrup, coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
Step 5
Remove the pan from the freezer and then pour the caramel layer over the cookie layer. Spread with a spatula until the caramel forms a nice smooth layer over the cookie layer.
Step 6
Place the pan back into the freezer to set for at least 30 minutes.
Step 7
Melt the chocolate chips and the coconut oil over a double boiler on the stove, or the microwave until smooth and melted.
Step 8
Remove the pan from the freezer. Lift the parchment paper and place it onto a cutting board. Cut the frozen Twix base into 10 bars.
Step 9
Dip the bars into the melted chocolate until fully coated.
Step 10
Place the chocolate-dipped bars back onto parchment paper, and then back into the freezer to set for just a few minutes.
Step 11
Enjoy right away or keep the bars stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1 week or the freezer for up to 6 months.
