Today I decided to make Twix Brownies. I know I just made Caramel Brownies, but Twix are my favorite Halloween candy, and with Halloween right around the corner I thought it was appropriate! Is it even necessary to have a reason to make brownies? No one in my house seems to mind!
These brownies are very simple to make and everything is mixed in one bowl which makes for an easy clean up. I started by melting unsalted butter and unsweetened chocolate in the microwave. Once they are melted, I whisked in vanilla, sugar, eggs, and salt. To finish the batter, flour is slowly added in until the mixture is combined and thick.

I poured half of the batter into a baking pan lined with foil and coated with nonstick cooking spray. I chopped up 12 fun size Twix bars and sprinkled them on top of the batter and then added the rest of the batter on top. The brownies bake for about 35 minutes, just until the center is cooked (be careful not to over cook!)

Since these brownies are really fudgy, it's important that you let them cool completely before cutting them.
The brownies came out soo good! They are so moist and the twix added a little crunch in the center as well as some gooey caramel - I actually liked them even better than the Caramel Brownies! I would definitely suggest making these. You can even substitute your favorite Halloween candy in the middle!
