SOUTH AFRICAN CHOCOLATE CRUNCHIES



South African Chocolate Crunchies image

They are crunchy squares with a yummy chocolate topping. They are easy to make and popular with kids to make and eat. Once made they won't stay around for long. There is a version of these that does not use chocolate but they are not as popular. I have reduced the sugar to 1/2 a cup, if you would like them sweeter use 1 cup of sugar.

CHOCOLATE CRUNCHIES

I took this recipe from Good Food Cakes, Bakes and Chocolate. They are very rich and never stay in my house for long. They will keep for up to a week wrapped in foil. Cooking time is actually chilling time.

Provided by Lou van

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 50m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

200 g digestive biscuits, crushed into uneven crumbs
100 g butter, plus extra for greasing
3 tablespoons golden syrup
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
50 g raisins
100 g dark chocolate

Steps:

  • Butter a 18cm / 7in sandwich tin.
  • Melt the butter and syrup in a pan.
  • Stir in the cocoa and raisins, then thoroughly stir in the biscuit crumbs.
  • Spoon into the tin and press down firmly.
  • Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of simmering water and spread over the biscuit base.
  • Chill for about half an hour.

Tips:

  • Use good quality chocolate. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your crunchies. Look for a chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overcook the sugar syrup. If you do, it will become too hard and brittle. Cook it until it reaches a temperature of 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Be careful when adding the chocolate to the sugar syrup. If you add it too quickly, it will seize and become lumpy. Add it slowly and stir constantly.
  • Work quickly when shaping the crunchies. The chocolate will start to set quickly, so you need to work quickly to get them into shape.
  • Let the crunchies cool completely before storing them. This will help them to keep their shape.

Conclusion:

Chocolate crunchies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a snack. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can make a batch of chocolate crunchies that everyone will love. So what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
