Healthy Twix Cups (Vegan)
When I saw these pop up on my page I had to try them! They looked just like the candy bar version but with all healthier ingredients. They literally blew us away. I think we scarfed them all down in 30 minutes. If you like these you will love my NO BAKE SNICKERS OAT CUPS (VEGAN).
These are super simple with a total of only 7 ingredients, to throw together in the morning and just be patient, and let them set in the freezer for 2 hours. You will not be disappointed!! The center literally tastes like caramel and the base like a yummy cookie. If you like these, you will love my viral NO BAKE 6 INGREDIENT PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE OAT CUPS!!

Healthy Twix Cups
Equipment
Ingredients
Base:
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tbs protein powder or coconut flour
- 3 tbs maple syrup
- 2 tbs olive oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
Caramel Layer:
- 1/3 cup peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 3 tbs maple syrup
- 1 tbs olive oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
Chocolate Topping:
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tsp olive oil
Instructions
Base:
- Preheat your oven to 350℉ Spray a mini muffin tray with oil or use a silicone mini muffin tray and skip the oil.
- Mix all of the base ingredients in a small bowl using a fork. Divide the mixture evenly to the muffin tray, filling about 1/3 full. Press down gently so there is flat top. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
Caramel Layer:
- In a small bowl, whisk together all of the caramel layer ingredients until smooth. Once the base layer has completely cooled, dollop on the caramel (about 1 tsp to each) and flatten out the tops with a small spoon.
Chocolate Layer:
- Melt the chocolate chips with the oil over low heat, stirring constantly to avoid burning the chocolate. Pour the chocolate to fill the tops of each cup. Transfer the muffin tray to your freezer and allow to set for 2 hours.
Amazing !
I missed the “mini” part so I only got 6 regular sized ones but will definitely make again !
Oh. My. God. These are amazingly simple and delicious! I wish I could post a photo, because they’re beautiful too!!!
I replaced the maple syrup with agave foot less calories and fat and used avocado oil instead of olive. Additionally, i used dairy free chocolate chips melted with coconut oil. Simply divine! Thanks for this recipe!!
how many carbs if I substitute sugarfree maple flavored syrup instead of real maple?
These look amazing! I am going to make them today! Is that some sort of sugar sprinkled on top of the finished product?
Can I use regular all purpose flour? I would like to use homemade caramel in placeof making as caranel layer.
These are very good. Not overly sweet but they hit the spot when you want something like a Twix but cannot have the sugar. Or you just want to eat healthier.
How long can these stay good without being in the refridgerator, and in the refridgerator
Hi Grace they start to melt after 15 minutes of being out of the freezer.
hello,
can you use almond butter instead of peanut butter?
HI Kelly, absolutey yes!!!
What vegan chocolate did you use please?.
Hi Bing, I use ENJOY LIFE brand chocolate chips – they are dairy free!
Very easy to make and is absolutely delicious. Eating one (or 6) straight out of the freezer really gives it that chewy caramel texture and shortbread crunch.
Excellent recipe, excellent flavour
Hi Summer, Glad you enjoyed the treats! And thanks for taking the time to comment on the recipe!
Can we use something other than almond flour due to an allergy?
You can use oat flour ….
Fabulous! Wowzer!!!
Hi Avie, glad you liked them! Thanks for the rating!
Would love to make these what can you use to substitute the maple syrup that would lower the sugar content
Hi Erika, You can use agave or they make no sugar maple syrup now…
This sounds great! Any substitute for the maple syrup? Trying to lower the carbs.
Hi Deanna, Agave i think is lower in sugar but I know they make zero sugar maple syrup too!
Could you make this in a 8×8 instead and have bars from it? Sounds delicious!
Hi Kelle, either that pan or maybe a 9×5 loaf pan would work better….
I did make some in a small round which did fine but I should have scored the chocolate so the pieces looked nicer when cut.
