I like to have something with milk for breakfast at the weekend. Mostly I eat oatmeal or some granola with fruit or wheat cornflakes… not that sweet stuff. But one day I had a craving for this caramel chocolate crunch… LION CEREALS!
So what to do now? Search for a good rice krispie treats recipe. I found one on Bakers Royale, a very good one. As there is a chocolate topping and some chocolate inthe marshmallow mass, I added some super chewy caramel toffees. :)
I hope you like this version :). Enjoy with a glass of milk!
Chocolate and Caramel Rice Krispie Treats
(for a 30 cm x 20 cm (13´´ x 9´´) pan)
2 tbsp butter
60 g (2 oz) chocolate chips
150 g (10 1/2 oz) marshmallows
6 cups Lion Cereals
12 caramel toffees
Topping:
180g (6 oz) semi-sweet chocolate
3 tbsp butter
6 caramel toffees
Butter your pan. Cut the caramel toffees into small cubes and set aside. Melt the chocolate chips, butter and marshmallows in a large saucepan over low (!) heat. Stir constantly until the mass is smooth. Add the Lion Cereal and caramel toffee and combine quickly. Transform the mixture into the prapared pan and press it down using a spoon. Let cool for at least 30 minutes.
To prepare the topping, cut again the toffee into small cubes. Melt the chocolate together with the butter in 3 or 4 steps à 30 seconds in the microwave or over a water bath. When the mixture is smooth, pour it on top of the rice krispie treats and spread it evenly. Don’t forget to spread the cut toffee on top :).
