How to Make Cherry Ripe Crackles

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Spread 1 cup of desiccated coconut on the prepared baking tray and toast in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine 6 cups of Rice Bubbles cereal, 1 cup of chopped glace cherries, and the toasted coconut.
  4. Roughly chop 200g (approximately 2 standard bars) of Cherry Ripe chocolate bars.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped Cherry Ripe chocolate, 60g of margarine, and 2 tablespoons of golden syrup.
  6. Microwave on high for 1-minute intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. (Total time should be around 2-3 minutes depending on microwave wattage)
  7. Stir in 1 teaspoon of coconut essence into the melted chocolate mixture.
  8. Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the rice bubble mixture and gently fold until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
  9. Using a spoon, fill 24 paper patty cases with the chocolate mixture, pressing down gently to compact the mixture.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the crackles have set completely.
  11. Once set, remove from the refrigerator and enjoy your delicious Cherry Ripe Crackles!
