Give the belly what IT wants!!!

Browsing babycenter.com today I came across
a recipe for twix bars! Mmmm they looked soo yummy, I decided 
to try it out.


I made a couple changes, because pretzels just 
didn't sound as good as short bread.

So here is goes,
You really only need 4 ingredients:
*Shortbread (or pretzels)
*Nutella 
*Carmel squares
*Chocolate chips 
(I used both milk & semi-sweet--gotta keep daddy happy too)

Another reason I was so excited is that I had a $10 coupon @ Safeway! Oh yeah! So I think I paid like 5 bucks. yay!

1: I laid out wax paper and then began spreading a thin layer of nutella onto the shortbread.

2: Unwrap your carmel squares and begin to work them with your fingers.
It was tough, not going to lie! So it might be easier if you have someone else to make these with! 

3: Lay the flattened carmel on top of your cookies. AKA cookie blankies! lol

4: Put your chocolate chips into a microwave safe bowl and heat 30 sec at a time until smooth.


5: Mix well, using a fork dab a little chocolate on each side and smooth around
the edges. (your treats don't HAVE to have chocolate on the bottom, at the end I got lazy and just did tops/sides) hehe


6: Place in the fridge for about 15 min to let the chocolate harden again.


7: Enjoy!  Sea Salt/princess sprinkles optional!

But HOLY COW these are rich! I ate half of one, and really should have just eaten a quater!

And I made 30!! Uh-oh!

Who will help me eat them all!!!??
