Twix
Twitterfriend Aaron McGowan tweeted that Twix + Coffee = delicious. I am never one to pass up proving someone right—or even better, wrong—so I gave it a shot.
Unfortunately, it was as delightful as you’d expect. The half-melted chocolate and coffee-soaked biscuit are an improvement over dry Twix.
I had already dunked and devoured both bars before thinking of this, but I wonder if it is possible to suck up the coffee through the biscuit after biting off both ends.
This would resemble the Tim Tam Slam, which is something I have always wanted to try, but Tim Tams seem to only be available in Australia. Anyone out there know of a way to procure a Tim Tam here in Ontario? Please tell me, and I will both love you forever and give you credit for what would surely be an embarrassingly messy post.
Update Aug 5th: I found Tim Tams (at Loblaw, go figure)! How come you guys never told me how good these are? Stay tuned; I’ll try them with coffee if I don’t eat them all on their own first.
Tim Tams are available down here in California; I see them at target all the time.
We can Tim Tams here at Superstore and Sobey’s and Save On Foods.
I’ve seen them at Loblaw’s in Toronto – can’t remember which one. Maybe Bathurst/St. Clair or Dupont/Christie.
Sweet, thanks you guys! I guess I won’t have to have them imported from Australia after all. I’ll take a tour of some grocery stores I don’t usually go to and see if they have them.
You can totally suck the coffee up the twix, haven’t done this in a while though, so can’t recall how long it takes before the twix-straw collapses.
Works less well with chunky kit-kats.
Have you ever tried Snickerdoodle coffee?? Smells like snickers, has a hint of chocolate in the taste. Basically does what you’re doing with the Twix, but without the actual bar. Makes the house smell amazing too!
Twix and Coffee sounds like a perfect combo! I love the sweet stuff with coffee, you just cant beat it!
Snickerdoodle coffee sounds delicious! Where do you get it in London, Aaron?
Sound like a great combination, gonna try it out tomorrow morning!
one absolutly amazing combination of sweet and coffee and delightful texture is coffee topped with a floater of coconut sorbet. It has to be the kind of sorbet that is dairy and soy free it was a near orasmic texture and blends perfectly with coffee.
