Nigella’s Rice Crispy Treats

My son has friends coming over and one of them is gluten free. I decided to make some sweet treats that everyone can share. You can use regular coco pops if you are not gf.

I melted the chocolate in the mecrowwaveee 😆 and then added the butter and golden syrup.

Before adding the coco pops.

Pop it into a lined baking tin and refrigerate.

For the topping I melted more chocolate with coconut oil and then poured it over the top of the cooled coco pop mixture.

Once chilled then slice and eat. This was so good and made a nice change from marshmallow rice crispy treats.

This was super simple recipe and not too rich or heavy. 😊 xxx

Turkish Delight Slice

This is another super easy no bake slice! I did end up using two packs of biscuits as the butter/condensed mixture was so sticky.

I chopped the butter and 4 Turkish delights and placed them in a microwave dish to heat.

I then added the condensed milk to the melted mixture.

The crushed biscuits were then added to the mix.

Once combined, I then put it into a lined tray.

I melted the chocolate with some coconut oil and then poured it over the slice mixture before popping chopped up Turkish Delight pieces on top.

Chill for a couple of hours before slicing. This recipe was a hit in our house! 😍

Todays slice is just bits that I needed to use up, this is called #economygastronomy 😉

I used:
2 x packs of biscuits- I used hob nobs
100g butter melted
200g (half a tin) condensed milk
2 tablespoons golden syrup
1 block chocolate
1 tablespoon coconut oil

In a bowl add your condensed milk, melted butter and golden syrup and add the crushed biscuits.

Pop into a lined tin.

For the topping, melt your chocolate in the microwave with the coconut oil then pour over the cooled slice.

I have some Ghiradelli Caramel Sauce leftover from our Christmas trip so I decided to drizzle this over the top of the chocolate and then added the sprinkles.

Pop in the fridge until completely chilled before slicing.

This was absolutely delicious, I really liked the hob nob base! Happy Saturday. 😍
