These vegan birthday cake Twix bars are a fun spin on my classic Twix recipe. They have an almond cookie base, caramel filling, covered in a white chocolate sprinkle topping and are vegan, gluten free, and paleo friendly! With a little almond extract, mixed with the white chocolate and sprinkles, these are giving all the birthday cake flavor vibe!

Fun fact about me.. if i’m getting a dessert or treat and birthday cake is a flavor option, i’m 100% choosing it. It’s always been one of my favorites. I think it might be my slight obsession with almond extract – it’s just too good and combined with the white chocolate.. UGH. In love.
I plan on making these for our Easter celebrations this weekend as they’d be such a cute addition to the treat table!
Ingredients to make birthday cake twix bars
Maple syrup: You can sub honey or another sticky sweetener.
Cashew butter: You can substitute almond butter or sunflower seed butter for a nut-free option. I wouldn’t use peanut butter as the flavor is much stronger than cashew and almond and will alter the flavor of the bars.
White chocolate: I have a few brands I personally love.
-Refined sugar free AND vegan: Loving Earth and Evolved
-Vegan: Pascha is great.
-Rrefined sugar free, but still contains dairy: Lily’s and Bake Believe are awesome.
Sprinkles: I always opt for all natural sprinkles, as they don’t contain artificial dyes or nasties.

Lets make some twix bars
- Mix together the crust ingredients and press into a lined bread pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
- While the crust is baking, mix together the filling ingredients. Once the base has cooled, spread the filling over it.
- Melt the white chocolate until smooth, then stir in the sprinkles. Pour over the filling, tilting the pan to ensure the white chocolate spreads out evenly. Top with a few extra sprinkles.
- Place the pan in the freezer for at least 2 hours, but preferably 4-6 hours, until fully set before cutting into bars.
Storing extra Bars
Store extras in the freezer. You can let them thaw a few minutes before enjoying for a softer texture, however they’re amazing straight from the freezer!
