I just tried this homemade version of Nestle Crunch Bars, and we love them:
2 bags milk chocolate chips (I used Hershey's)
1 1/2 cups Rice Krispies
Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave at 50% power for one minute at a time, stirring after each minute, until melted. Stir in Rice Krispies. Spread in a greased 9x13 pan. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Store in the refrigerator.
They get too soft when left out on the counter. But I've been using a metal serving spatula to cut them, because they're very firm in the fridge. But they're just lovely to eat.
We've thought of adding a layer of caramel, then another layer of Crunch, to make it like a 100 Grand Bar, but I don't have the ingredients in the house to do those other layers. It might turn into a mess that way, anyway.
Sounds yummy!
We make a buttercrunch candy with matzoh bread as the base with chocolate and carmel. I would think your GRAND recipe might work if you used a matzoh bottom layer. So, matsoh, chocolate, carmel, chocolate) the last there having rice crispies mixed in? So long since I have had one, it is hard to recreat in my mind! But I think the matzoh cracker base would contain the choc/carmel melty stuff.
The buttercrunch makes the carmel with a brown sugar/butter mixture and it too cools in the fridge to then be broken apart.
Thanks for the idea!
Those sound sooooo good. I am making them tonight!
Check out Skor Bar Square Recipe posted here. I'll raise. All the food groups - chocolate, caramalized brown sugar, yum.
For the Crunch bars do you need to line the dish or spray so it does not stick?
Thank you for the Skor bar recipe. I am also making this today (suprise my husband Skor bars are his favorites) [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img]
I greased the bottom of the pan lightly with shortening, and they come out easily. I would think non-stick spray would work great, too.
Oh wow, I will have to try this.
We get "crispy rice bars" from Vermont Nut Free. They are my kids favorite. But you know, it gets expensive....
These are great! My PA son loves them and so does the rest of my family. Thanks for the recipe.
Just made the homemade crunch bars tonight and they are a huge hit and they really taste like the real thing!!! Thanks Bethc [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img]
