I love school pot lucks. I like making foods for the kids. Unfortunately, nowadays, there are so many things to avoid at school. Chocolates are not allowed; nuts and nut products are no longer allowed. I guess lots of kids have deadly allergies to it these days. It’s banned from both T and Z’s schools.
Tonight is the last day of T’s Hula class so the instructor arranged a potluck. I’m taking advantage and made a desert that has chocolate and nuts!
I decided to bring some Chocolate Rice Cereal. I chose this because I had so many chocolates left from Easter. Yes, from April. It hasn’t expired yet and I’m sure they wouldn’t even suspect.
I thought everybody would avoid chocolates at 6PM but nope, it was a hit. So many food at the pot luck and this is still the one that was eaten first. Maybe I should’ve brought more than 12. This took less than 20 minutes to make. Next time, I’ll buy chocolate-colored baking cups. You know, like the one they use to wrap gourmet chocolates … I think it would look even better on those.
Recipe: Chocolate Rice Cereal
Here’s what you’ll need to make this scrumptious treat:
5 Snickers with almonds (4 chopped)
4 tbsp unsalted butter*
8-10oz milk chocolate**
3 cups rice cereal***
1. Line up cupcake liners on 12-muffin pan
2. Melt butter and 4 snickers over medium heat on a medium pan
3. Put in rice cereal and mix well.
4. After mixing, distribute evenly on the muffin cups making sure it’s just to the top.
5. Melt milk chocolate and pour on top of each muffin cup over rice cereal.
6. Use the 5th snickers bar to top each muffin
7. Refrigerate until it sets (about 15 minutes)
* Or salted (if you don’t have unsalted) but unsalted for better results
** Use any milk chocolate at your disposal and melt it … the point is to top your rice cereal with melted chocolate.
*** Rice Krispies has HCFS. Try to use Erehwon
