Description

Some days you just crave a whole load of chocolate craziness and I believe the chocolate crackle is one of the few that can satisfy. It’s chocolaty, crispy, sweet, moreish… and extremely fattening! In Australia, they’re made with Rice Crispies. In England, they’re called Chocolate Cornflake Cakes. I’ve always known them as Chocolate Crackles.

Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Golden Syrup (Or Corn Syrup)
  • 3 cups Cornflakes
  • 1 bar (150g or 5-6 Oz. Size) Dark Chocolate

Preparation

Melt the ingredients (bar cornflakes) all together in a heat-proof dish over hot water, but only stir once at the end to combine them all smoothly. This is because if you over stir, the chocolate splits and can curdle to some effect.

Add in your cornflakes – some people like their cornflakes barely covered with chocolate so add more, but if you like lots of chocolate, add less. Use your intuition!

Drop spoonfuls of the mixture into cupcake or muffin cases and place in the fridge to set for a few hours.

Eat with small children and watch them bounce off the walls!

Calamity, here in America you can use Karo corn syrup. My husband is from Australia and crackles are a standard at parties there. His sisters frequently help me find the right ingredients here or translate names.

Golden Syrup – it’s an English thing – used a lot in sweets and desserts. I guess you could say it’s a cross between molasses (but more golden) and Maple Syrup (but thicker). I guess a nice thick honey would do well too…

I’ve never heard of Golden Syrup…what would that be comparable to?

Thanks for letting me know! I put all ingredients down originally but for some reason it didn’t save, so I’ve redone it – hopefully it comes up with all the goods now… hope it works this time for you!

I think you have at least one (maybe more) ingredients missing…
