Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 g semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 115 g unsalted butter
- 60 ml honey
- 200 g crisped rice cereal
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
Line an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal later.
In a medium, heatproof bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, unsalted butter, and honey.
Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Stir occasionally until the chocolate and butter are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Remove the bowl from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
Gently fold the crisped rice cereal into the melted chocolate mixture, ensuring all the cereal is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan and press it down into an even layer using the back of a spoon or a spatula.
Refrigerate the pan for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm and set.
Once set, lift the entire chocolate crunch square slab out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and cut into 16 squares.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
