Homemade Twix Bars

It never crossed my mind to make my own candy bar. But I saw this recipe here, it looked delicious, and I had to try them. 

Homemade Twix Bars
Cookie:
1 cup flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter

Caramel:
1/2 cup butter
2 tbsp Corn Syrup
1/2 cup condensed milk 
1/2 cup brown sugar

Chocolate:
1-1/2 cups Cadbury milk chocolate (I used Ghirardelli milk chocolate)

1. Mix the cookie ingredients until it is all combined and crumbly, do not over-mix. Pat down in a greased 9x9 glass pan. Bake for 325 degrees for 20 minutes. You don't want the cookie to be under-cooked, it's supposed to be a little crunchy. 

2. While the cooking is baking - combine the caramel ingredients in a saucepan, turn to medium-high heat, and constantly stir until it boils. Once the caramel comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and continue to constantly stir for 5 minutes.

3. Pour the caramel over the hot cookie. Place in the fridge and let it cool for at least an hour.

4. Melt the chocolate and pour over filling. Let it cool again for up to an hour before cutting.
