Here’s a simple, from-scratch recipe for Chocolate Crunch Bars (like homemade Crunch bars, but even better):
🍫 Chocolate Crunch Bars (From Scratch)
Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate)
- 1 cup crispy rice cereal (like Rice Krispies)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil or butter (optional, for smoother melt)
- Pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate
- Use a double boiler or microwave in 20–30 second intervals, stirring between each until smooth.
- Stir in coconut oil or butter if using.
- Add the Crunch
- Gently fold in the crispy rice cereal until evenly coated.
- Shape the Bars
- Pour mixture into a parchment-lined 8×8 pan.
- Spread evenly and press lightly to compact.
- Chill
- Refrigerate for 1–2 hours, or until firm.
- Cut & Enjoy
- Lift out using parchment and slice into bars or squares.
🔥 Optional Upgrades
- Add ½ tsp vanilla extract.
- Mix in chopped nuts.
- Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before chilling.
- Swirl in peanut butter.
