Equipment

  • Microwave, Thermomix or Stove-Top

Ingredients

For The Base

  • 75 g (⅓ cup) butter
  • 180 g Cadbury Caramilk chocolate chopped
  • 20 g (1 tbs) golden syrup
  • 90 g (3 cups) Rice Bubbles or any puffed rice

For The Topping

  • 180 g Cadbury Caramilk chocolate
  • 20 g (1 tbs) coconut oil or mild vegetable oil (optional)

Instructions

Conventional Method

  • Grease and line a 18cm x 22cm rectangular slice tin with baking paper and set aside. 
  • Melt the butter, Caramilk chocolate and golden syrup on a microwave safe bowl on medium power (50%) in 30 second bursts in the microwave (or on low heat in a saucepan) until melted.
    Please note: leaving some small lumps of chocolate is completely fine.
  • Stir through the Rice Bubbles.
  • Press mixture very firmly into the prepared tin. Use a round glass or jug to press the mixture down as hard as you can (you'll hear some of the rice bubbles crushing).
  • To make the topping, place the Caramilk chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on medium for 2-3 minutes at medium power (50%), or until just melted, stirring every 30 seconds with a metal spoon. Stir until smooth.
  • Spread over slice and refrigerate until firm (a minimum of 3-4 hours - or best overnight).
  • Remove slice from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cutting into squares with a warm serrated knife.

Thermomix Method

  • Grease and line a 18cm x 22cm rectangular slice tin with baking paper and set aside. 
  • Place the Caramilk chocolate, butter and golden syrup into the Thermomix bowl. Melt for 3 minutes, 60 degrees, Speed 2.
  • Add the Rice Bubbles and mix for 15 seconds, Reverse, Speed 2, or until completely combined.
  • Press mixture very firmly into the prepared tin. Use a round glass or jug to press the mixture down as hard as you can (you'll hear some of the rice bubbles crushing).
  • Place the Caramilk chocolate and coconut oil into a clean Thermomix bowl. Melt for 3 minutes, 50 degrees, Speed 3 or until melted (scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally).
  • Spread over slice and refrigerate until firm (a minimum of 3-4 hours - or best overnight).
  • Remove slice from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cutting into squares with a warm serrated knife.

Notes

RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
  • Use a fresh box of Rice bubbles or Rice Krispies - this will ensure your slice is crispy and crunchy!
  • Golden syrup substitutions - you can replace the golden syrup with corn syrup, honey or maple syrup. 
  • Press the mixture VERY firmly into a greased and lined baking tin -the mixture needs to be pressed down very firmly so that it doesn’t break apart you you cut it.
  • Adding coconut oil or vegetable oil to the Caramilk chocolate - will prevent the chocolate topping layer from cracking when sliced.
  • Setting time - leave in the fridge to set for a minimum of 3-4 hours (overnight is best).
  • Cutting the slice - take the slice out of the fridge 30 minutes before cutting to allow the chocolate to soften slightly. Use a small serrated knife to cut through the chocolate layer and then through the Rice Bubbles layer.
  • Storing the slice - Caramilk Rice Bubble Slice can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. It can also be frozen for up to 1 month.
