- Makes 16 squares or 32 bite-size chunks
Ingredients
- 150g dark chocolate, broken into pieces (70% cocoa solids is good)
- 100g unsalted butter
- 4 tbsp golden syrup
- 100g Rice Krispies cereal
- 50g dried blueberry
- 50g dried cranberry
- 100g mini marshmallow
- 50g white chocolate, broken into pieces
- jelly snakes and bugs, to decorate
Method
- STEP 1
Line a 20cm square tin with baking parchment or cling film. Place the dark chocolate, butter and golden syrup in a pan over a low heat and stir until melted.
- STEP 2
Put the Rice Krispies in a large bowl and mix in the blueberries, cranberries and marshmallows. Stir in the melted chocolate mixture until everything is well-coated. Spoon the mixture into the tin and spread out evenly. Chill in the fridge for an hour until set (or make the day before and chill overnight).
- STEP 3
Remove from tin and peel away paper or cling film. Using a sharp knife, cut into 16 squares or 32 bite-size pieces. Melt the white chocolate in a small bowl over a pan of barely-simmering water, or in the microwave on High for 1 min, stirring half way. Using a teaspoon, drizzle the white chocolate over the squares. Scatter with the jelly sweets, then allow to set before piling onto a serving plate. Keep in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
