IMG_9750 IMG_9767

From the annals of awesome comes the “Dirty Twixter” bar – reminiscent of the Twix chocolate bar – from the delicatessen at The Dirty Apron. It’s a brown sugar shortbread cookie rectangle topped with smooth dulce de leche and salted caramel chocolate ganache. It’s exactly as good as it looks and worth every penny of $4.25.
