Ingredients
Scale
- 200 g White Chocolate (opt for vegan if needed)
- 120 g Puffed Rice (try using organic Rice Crispies)
- 380 g Homemade Ube Butter
- Optional: A sprinkle of sea salt or crushed nuts for topping
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, melt the white chocolate over a double boiler or in the microwave (heat in 30-second intervals and stir until smooth). Once melted, add the puffed rice and mix until the rice is evenly coated.
- Line a 20 cm (8-inch) square baking tin with parchment paper for easy removal. Spoon the coated rice crispies into the pan, pressing down firmly with a spatula to create a solid base.
- Spoon your homemade Ube Butter over the rice crispies and level it with a spatula to create an even layer.
- Place the tin in the fridge for 1-2 hours to set until solid.
- Once set, remove from the fridge and lift out the parchment paper. Slice the bars into squares or rectangles and serve.
Notes
Always use high-quality white chocolate to avoid a waxy texture. Make sure your butter is at room temperature for easy mixing.
