Crunchy, chocolaty, sneaky-healthy, and fun to make!

This snack is a 10-minute kitchen adventure (plus 1 hour of fridge magic) that’s perfect for making with kids—or stealing from the fridge when they’re not looking. 😏

Ingredients

  • 90g (3.2 oz) dark chocolate (the grown-up kind, still kid-approved!)
  • 30g (1 oz) puffed rice (light and crunchy like a good giggle)
  • 30g (1 oz) puffed quinoa (tiny but mighty, like your little helpers)
  • A handful of raisins (nature’s gummy bears)
  • A sprinkle of almonds, chopped (crunchy goodness)
  • A sprinkle of hazelnuts, chopped (because nuts make everything better)

How to Make the Choco-Puff Magic Happen:

Chocolate Alchemy: Break up the chocolate into chunks and melt it in a bain-marie (aka the grown-up way of saying “fancy hot water bath”). Stir until silky smooth like a bedtime story.

Mix It Up: In a big bowl, toss together puffed rice, puffed quinoa, raisins, almonds, and hazelnuts. Now, pour the melted chocolate over the whole gang. Let the kids stir it all up—they’ll feel like kitchen wizards! 🪄

Spread the Love: Pour the mixture into a parchment-lined pan and flatten it out with a spatula (or the back of a spoon if spatulas have mysteriously disappeared again).

The Waiting Game: Pop it in the fridge for about an hour. While it sets, keep the little ones busy with taste tests (a.k.a. licking the spoon)

The Final Touch: Cut into squares, triangles, or whatever shapes spark joy. Then, enjoy the “Oooh, this is so good!” chorus from your Mini-Mes. ❤️
