Twix Cheesecake Pie
With all that leftover candy, Halloween doesn't have to end at 12am November 1st. This is one of several recipes for all that candy.
Let's Talk About Twix!
Twix is one of the popular candies, in general and during Halloween.Twix is made up of a cookie center, caramel topping and coated in chocolate.
I remember amidst the three bags of candy I'd bring home when I was a kid, twix was plentiful. This hub features a recipe that'll please your family and use up a good portion of those twix.
A Bit About Twix:
- Did you know Twix has dual citizenship? The candy bar, though owned by an American company (mars Inc.) debuted in the UK in 1967. It didn't come to the United States until 13 years later.
- Since it's debut there have been 30 varieties of Twix, including: Twix PB, Twix Coconut, Dark Chocolate Twix, Triple Chocolate Twix, Twix Tea Breaks, Twix Minis, Cookies N' Cream Twix, Twix Mint, Twix Cappuccino and Twix Xtra.
- Until 1991 when Twix became the universal name for the candy bar, Twix was known as Raider in many other countries.
- One package of Twix is 284 Calories. 125 of those calories are from fat.
