Ingredients

  • 150g dark chocolate , broken into pieces (70% cocoa solids is good)
  • 100g unsalted butter
  • 4 tbsp golden syrup
  • 100g Rice Krispies cereal
  • 50g dried blueberries
  • 50g dried cranberries
  • 100g mini marshmallows
  • 50g white chocolate , broken into pieces
  • jelly snakes and bugs, to decorate

Instructions

  • Line a 20cm square tin with baking parchment or cling film. Place the dark chocolate, butter and golden syrup in a pan over a low heat and stir until melted.
  • Put the Rice Krispies in a large bowl and mix in the blueberries, cranberries and marshmallows. Stir in the melted chocolate mixture until everything is well-coated. Spoon the mixture into the tin and spread out evenly. Chill in the fridge for an hour until set (or make the day before and chill overnight).
  • Remove from tin and peel away paper or cling film. Using a sharp knife, cut into 16 squares or 32 bite-size pieces. Melt the white chocolate in a small bowl over a pan of barely-simmering water, or in the microwave on High for 1 min, stirring half way. Using a teaspoon, drizzle the white chocolate over the squares. Scatter with the jelly sweets, then allow to set before piling onto a serving plate. Keep in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
