Twix Chocolate Pots
Foodtalk Recommends!
These Twix-inspired chocolate pots only take about 15 minutes to prepare, then just leave them overnight to set. They're the perfect quick and easy dessert that are good enough to serve to guests!
I’ve made chocolate pots a few times in the past – chocolate pots with salted caramel, chocolate pots with peanut butter, even pink chocolate pots! The basic recipe is always the same, then you can add whatever tasty extras you like. This time I added luscious caramel and a biscuit base to make chocolate pots inspired by one of my favourite chocolate bars, a Twix!
I used these big glass ramekins for my Twix chocolate pots, purely because I wanted the three layers to be visible in the photos – but really, these ramekins are a bit too big. You could easily get away with making your chocolate pots half this size. They’re really rich! I’m not saying I didn’t eat a whole one of these enormous pots… but I probably shouldn’t have.

Recipe details
Ingredients
For the base:
- 100 g digestive biscuits, or similar - about 6 biscuits
- 45 g (~ 3 tbsp) unsalted butter, melted
- ~ 8 tbsp dulce de leche or caramel sauce
For the chocolate layer:
- 50 g (scant 1/4 cup) unsalted butter
- 280 g (~ 10 oz) milk chocolate, broken into chunks
- 300 ml (~ 1 1/8 cups) double cream / heavy cream
Instructions
- Place the digestive biscuits in a plastic food bag, and crush them thoroughly. Transfer them to a bowl, and add the 45g melted butter. Mix well.
- Distribute the biscuit mixture between around 8 small ramekins, pressing it down firmly. Top each biscuit base with a spoonful of dulce de leche (or similar caramel sauce).
- To make the chocolate layer, add the 50g butter, milk chocolate, and cream to a saucepan, and place over a low heat. Stirring regularly, heat the mixture gently until it all melts and forms a smooth, silky mixture.
- Divide the chocolate mixture between the ramekins, then place in the fridge overnight to set. Serve chilled.
