CHOCOLATE RICE KRISPIE TREATS

Steps:

• Have ready a greased 9x13" casserole dish.
• Add the butter to a large pot over medium heat and melt. As soon as the butter has melted, add 8 cups miniature marshmallows and stir until melted and combined. Turn off the heat and stir in the vanilla and salt.
• Add the Cocoa Krispies to the pot and stir to combine, then stir in the remaining 2 1/2 cups of marshmallows, the chocolate chips, and stir to evenly distribute.
• Transfer the contents of the pot to the prepared casserole dish, and with greased hands, gently press down to smooth over the top. Do not press hard or the marshmallow treats will be tough.
• Allow to set, about 30-45 minutes. Cut into 12-16 squares, serve, and enjoy!

CHOCOLATE RICE KRISPIE CAKES

Steps:

• Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl with the butter and golden syrup and gently melt in 10-second bursts in the microwave, or melt it over a pan of simmering water, making sure the bowl doesn't touch the water. Stir until smooth, then take off the heat and stir in the rice pops, coating them gently with the chocolate until they are all completely covered.
• Divide the mixture between nine cupcake or 12 fairy cake paper cases - it's easier if you slide these into a muffin tin as it will help them hold their shape. Leave to set. If you want them to set faster, put in the fridge for 1 hr.
• Drizzle with a little melted chocolate and decorate with sweets, dried fruit or nuts while they are still wet enough to stick them on. Will keep in an airtight container for five days.
