TWIX PROTEIN COOKIE BARS
(High Protein / Keto-Friendly / Low-Carb)
After Halloween, it can be difficult to stay away from the candy bucket your kid brings home. They don’t need all that candy anyway, right?
The Twix bars are always amongst the most loved treats and the chocolate and caramel flavor combo hits the “sweet” spot.
If you have a craving for a delicious, chocolatey, caramel treat but don’t want to indulge in too much sugar, then these Twix Protein Cookie Bars might be the perfect match.
They include a nutrient-rich, healthy boost with our MariGold Creamy Vanilla Whey Isolate Protein Powder which also has L-Glutamine for immunity, gut health, and strong muscles. They are also keto-friendly, low-carb, and can be made sugar-free.
Skip the Halloween leftovers and make these instead!

“I was craving something chocolate+caramel so I decided to do a Twix cookie bar using my Blondie recipe. These are so soft and delicious, you can add any flavors or toppings too. They are so simple to make and everyone will love them.”
