Crunchy Chocolate Bars Recipes

CHOCOLATE CRUNCH BARS

Steps:

• Gently melt the butter, chocolate and syrup in a pan over a low heat, stirring frequently until smooth, then cool for about 10 mins.
• Stir the biscuits and sweets into the pan until well mixed, then pour into a 17cm square tin lined with foil and spread the mixture to roughly level it. Chill until hard, then cut into fingers.

CHOCOLATE TOFFEE CRUNCH BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and 1/3 cup melted butter. Press into the bottom of an ungreased 9x13 inch pan.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in preheated oven. In a saucepan, combine 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup brown sugar. Cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil; boil for 1 minute. Pour immediately over baked cookie base.
• Bake for 10 more minutes. Remove from oven, and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Let stand for 2 to 3 minutes, until chips are shiny and soft. Spread the softened chocolate evenly over the top. Sprinkle with chopped nuts. Cool before cutting into bars.

CRUNCHY PART OF A CADBURY'S CRUNCHIE BAR

Steps:

• Grease an 8 inch square pan with butter.
• Off the heat (that means on the counter), mix the sugar and the syrup in a heavy-bottomed saucepan (use a pretty big saucepan, you'll thank me later).
• Now put the pan over a medium to low heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes (Nigella bases this on using an 8-inch diameter saucepan).
• The mixture is ready to come off the heat when it's a thick, bubbling bunch of gook, the color of light sand and no darker -- don't let it get any darker than that, or you'll end up with burnt and smelly sugar goop!
• Take the stuff off the heat and quickly whisk in the baking soda.
• Watch the caramel foam up like something out of a sci-fi film (this is the part where you thank me for telling you to use a large pot).
• Pour the foamy stuff into the pan and leave it to set.
• This will take several hours.
• Be patient.
• You can try and cut it into squares, but it will be a fruitless task.
• Best bet is to just bash it into a bunch of different shaped pieces.
• This is good frustration therapy.
• You can dip the pieces into melted chocolate to make your own Cadbury's Crunchy bars, or you could fold splinters of this into either homemade or bought vanilla icecream for honeycomb ice cream.

CRUNCHY BAKED GRANOLA BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C) and arrange oats and almonds on a bare baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until slightly toasted. They shouldn't be browned, just slightly toasted for more flavor. Reduce oven heat to 325 degrees F (162 C).
• In the meantime, add flaxseed meal, desiccated coconut, and sea salt to a large mixing bowl and stir. Set aside.
• Once oats and almonds are toasted, add to the mixing bowl along with chopped dates. Loosely stir to combine and set aside.
• Add almond butter, coconut oil, and maple syrup to a small saucepan and bring to a low boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Then remove from heat and immediately add to the oats (see photo).
• Use a mixing spoon to mix thoroughly, ensuring that the dates and the almond butter mixture are evenly dispersed and coating all of the dry ingredients.
• Add the mixture to a parchment-lined 8x8-inch baking pan (size/number as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size) and spread into an even layer. Then top with another layer of parchment paper and press down with something flat - such as a measuring cup - to press into an even, uniform layer.
• Bake at 325 degrees F (162 C) for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool in the pan. Transfer to the freezer to speed cooling time.
• Once cooled, lift out of the pan and slice into desired number of bars. I went with 6 bars, but you could easily do 8 bars or 12 squares (amounts as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size).
• Optional: Melt dark chocolate and coconut oil in a small mixing bowl in the microwave or over a double boiler on the stovetop. Spoon a small amount over the bars in a drizzle pattern or cover half of the bar with chocolate. Top with sea salt or hemp seeds.
• Once bars have dried/cooled, store covered at room temperature for 5 days or in the freezer up to 1 month.

HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE BARS

Steps:

• *The recipe can be poured into any flat container. For the chocolate bar shape, I used this chocolate candy mold. Homemade Chocolate Bars: Gently warm oil if not already melted. Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Stir until it gets thick. Pour into any flat container or candy molds, or smush between layers of wax paper or in ziploc bags. Chill until solid, and store in the fridge or freezer. Once hardened, you can also opt to melt the bars again for chocolate sauce. View Nutrition Facts
