Hello lovelies,
I told you I was on a ‘no-bake’ hype at the moment and with a list as long as my arm of no-bake recipes I want to make, chill and share with you all, believe me when I say I’m not stopping anytime soon.
My mum is on a crunchie fixation at the moment (which I can’t blame her, they are an incredible chocolate bar), therefore, I knew crunchie had to be the next chocolate added to my no-bake series. Let’s just say, it certainly didn’t disappoint!
These ‘no-bake’ recipes have quickly become a firm favourite of you guys here on the blog and I can see why. The simplicity of these recipes is just amazing.
From only using 5 ingredients, to how easy the recipes are to follow, to how quickly these bars can be made, to the amazing adaptability of ingredients – these no-bake bars are just utter perfection for anyone of any skill set to recreate.
And as I’ve said, the addition of crunchie to this recipe certainly didn’t disappoint. It added a satisfyingly sweet, indulgent flavour which worked perfectly alongside the biscuit base and milk chocolate topping. Not forgetting the crunch which adds the perfect textural element to give this recipe character.
It’s an elite chocolate bar as it is so I knew it would be an elite addition to today’s recipe.
So, if this no-bake crunchie bar has caught your eye and got you wanting to create a batch yourself, you know the drill. Keep on scrolling below and you’ll find today’s recipe.
Category: Sweet Treat
Servings: 16 Bars
Prep Time: 15 Minutes
Chill Time: A Minimum Of 2 Hours
Overall Time: 2+ Hours
Ingredients You Need For The Base:
- 350g Of Digestive Biscuits
- 100g Of Unsalted Butter, Melted
- 300g Of Condensed Milk
- 4 Crunchies, Chopped
Ingredients You Need For The Topping:
- 300g Of Milk Chocolate
- 50g Of Unsalted Butter
- 2 Crunchies, Chopped
How To Make The Crunchie Bars:
- Firstly, gather together your equipment and ingredients and line a 9” loose-bottomed, square baking tin with parchment paper.
- Secondly, in a food processor (or a ziplock bag with a rolling pin), crush the 350g of digestive biscuits into crumbs.
- Transfer the digestive biscuit crumbs into a mixing bowl. Add 100g of melted unsalted butter and 300g of condensed milk and mix until combined.
- Chop up 4 crunchie bars and then fold into the biscuit mixture.
- Now, press the biscuit mixture evenly into the base of the prepared baking tin and set to one side.
- In a small microwavable bowl, add the 300g of milk chocolate and 50g of unsalted butter. Place into the microwave and in 20 second blasts, blast until completely melted together (stir to combine the chocolate and butter).
- Pour the chocolate butter mixture on top of the biscuit mixture base, using a spoon to spread it out evenly. Give the tin a gentle shake to disburse any air bubbles.
- Chop up 2 more bars of crunchie and sprinkle them across the top of the chocolate.
- Place into the fridge and allow to chill for at least 4 hours, until the chocolate is solid.
- Finally, once chilled, take out the fridge and very carefully remove from the tin. Cut into 16 bars and serve.
That’s your No-Bake Crunchie Bars prepared, chilled and cut, ready for you to enjoy!
Notes:
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days or in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days.
