Twix bars have a special place in my heart. No, it\u2019s not the cholesterol caused by the candy\u2019s saturated fat. I\u2019ve been a fan of the chocolate, caramel, and cookie crunch combo since its debut in the US. When I was growing up, if any house in the neighborhood passed out Twix on Halloween, I\u2019d get some in one costume, do a mid-All Hallows Eve costume change, and return to the house to get more. That adoration is still with me today, because I find myself eating all the Twix from Mars candy assortments, leaving the Snickers and Milky Way as scraps. So these Papa Johns Twix Papa Bites are a no-brainer, right?<\/p>\n
Well\u2026<\/p>\n

The dessert or horrible idea for a meal combines Papa Johns\u2019 fresh dough with bits of Twix Cookie Bars. An order comes with eight pieces and is served with a caramel dipping sauce. After inhaling three pieces, I wondered if this would end up being my horrible idea for dinner because I wanted to eat them all, despite the item looking like the worse-case scenario for a microwaved Hot Pocket. But I didn\u2019t give in to temptation and left the rest for another day. Okay, another hour.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s chocolatey. It\u2019s caramel-y. It\u2019s doughy. But it\u2019s not cookie-y, and that\u2019s a big but to me. A large part of Twix\u2019s appeal is its cookie crunch, and these Papa Bites lack that. There\u2019s a grittiness that I assume are cookie bits, but they\u2019re so minuscule and have been sitting in melted chocolate and caramel that they don\u2019t provide any crunch at all. They make so little of a contribution that I could tell folks that these are Rolo Papa Bites, and they would probably believe me.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
As I mentioned earlier, an order comes with caramel dipping sauce, but only used it with a couple of pieces. There\u2019s enough caramel flavor without it, but if you get candy-less bites, it does come in handy. Finally, much like pizza, these still taste good cold, but the dough is chewier.<\/p>\n
Overall, Papa Johns Twix Papa Bites are a sweet, tasty way to end a pizza feast. But, for me, having a cookie crunch would\u2019ve taken it to another level.<\/p>\n
Purchased Price:<\/strong> $8.99* *Because I live on a rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, things are a bit pricier here. You’ll probably pay less than I did.
