Equipment

  • square baking pan lined with parchment paper
  • large saucepan
  • spatula or wooden spoon
  • microwave or double boiler
  • knife

Ingredients
  

  • 100 g unsalted butter
  • 150 g mini marshmallows
  • 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 100 g unsalted butter
  • 200 g granulated (caster) sugar
  • 2 tbsp golden syrup
  • 150 ml sweetened condensed milk
  • 150 g milk chocolate
  • 50 g white chocolate (optional, for marbling)

Instructions
 

  • Line a square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later. Lightly grease if needed.
  • In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the marshmallows and stir gently until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and quickly fold in the Rice Krispies cereal until evenly coated. Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan and refrigerate to set.
  • In a clean saucepan, combine butter, sugar, golden syrup, and sweetened condensed milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and turns a deep golden color. Pour the caramel evenly over the chilled base and return to the fridge to set.
  • Melt the milk chocolate gently, either in a microwave or over a double boiler. Pour over the caramel layer and smooth evenly. Melt the white chocolate and drizzle over the top for marbling.
  • Refrigerate until fully set, then lift out of the pan and slice into neat squares or bars.

Notes

Golden syrup can be substituted with light corn syrup or honey. Swap milk chocolate for dark chocolate if desired. Dairy-free alternatives work well. This recipe contains no alcohol or pork products.
