These 3-Ingredient Homemade Twix Bites are a quick and easy treat that tastes just like the classic candy bar! With just 3 ingredients—Nilla Wafers, Rolos, and chocolate—they’re perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth. Great for parties, gifts, or a fun snack, these bites are sure to be a hit!

Ingredients

72 mini Nilla Wafer cookies
1 (7 oz) bag Rolos, unwrapped
8 oz chocolate chips (or melting wafers)
1 tsp coconut oil (optional, for thinning the chocolate)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Assemble the Cookie Layers
Place 36 mini Nilla Wafer cookies on the prepared baking sheet. Place one Rolo candy in the center of each cookie.

Step 3: Soften the Rolos
Bake for 90 seconds. Do not bake longer—you want the Rolos to be slightly soft but not melted.

Step 4: Add the Top Cookie
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately place another Nilla Wafer cookie on top of each Rolo. Gently press down to sandwich the Rolo between the cookies.

Step 5: Chill
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes, or until the Rolos have set.

Step 6: Melt the Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, melt the chocolate chips (or melting wafers) with the coconut oil (if using) until smooth.

Step 7: Dip the Cookies
Dip each cookie sandwich into the melted chocolate, using a fork or chocolate dipper tool. Tap off any excess chocolate and place the cookies back on the parchment paper.

Step 8: Chill Again
Refrigerate the cookies until the chocolate has hardened, about 10-15 minutes.

Tips for the Best Twix Bites

  • Don’t overheat the Rolos. 90 seconds is the sweet spot—any longer and they’ll melt too much.
  • Use high-quality chocolate. It makes a big difference in flavor and texture.
  • Add toppings. Sprinkle the dipped cookies with sea salt, crushed nuts, or sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
  • Double the recipe. These bites disappear fast, so make extra!

Variations

Peanut Butter Twix Bites
Use peanut butter cups instead of Rolos for a nutty twist.

Dark Chocolate Twix Bites
Use dark chocolate chips or melting wafers for a richer flavor.

Holiday Twix Bites
Use festive sprinkles or colored chocolate to match the occasion (e.g., red and green for Christmas, pastels for Easter).

How to Store These Bites

  • Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
  • Refrigerator: Keep in the fridge for a firmer texture.
  • Freezer: Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I use regular-sized Nilla Wafers?
Yes, but you’ll need to adjust the number of Rolos and chocolate accordingly.

Can I use caramel candies instead of Rolos?
Yes, but you may need to soften them slightly in the oven before assembling.

Can I make these gluten-free?
Yes! Use gluten-free vanilla wafers to make these bites gluten-free.
