Winter Crunch

A fun seasonal treat to make with the kids, this Winter Crunch uses only four ingredients and is very moreish. Proceed with caution!!

Ingredients:

200g dark chocolate

70g salted pretzels

50g white chocolate

3 mint candy canes, crushed into small pieces (placing in a zip lock bag and bashing with a rolling pin works well!)

Step 1: Melt the dark chocolate. I do this by breaking the chocolate into small pieces in a bowl and microwaving it in 30 second bursts, stirring each time, until melted.

Step 2: Line an 8×8 inch baking tray (a brownie pan is perfect) with grease proof paper. Spread the pretzels over the lined tray. Pour over the melted dark chocolate. If necessary, use a spoon to ensure the chocolate is spread evenly and the pretzels are coated. It should be a fairly even layer. Sprinkle over 2/3 of the crushed candy canes. Place in the fridge for 10 minutes to set.

Step 3: Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate and set to one side until the 10 minutes are up. Drizzle the white chocolate over the set dark chocolate and then top with the remaining candy cane crush. Allow to set fully in the fridge before breaking or cutting into pieces.

Step 4: Try not to eat it all at once.
