This treat is a chocolate lovers dream. It’s creamy chocolate with a little crunch similar to a Krackel Candy Bar or Nestle Crunch Candy Bar…except WAAAAY better. I make this treat all year round, not just at Christmas! With only 6 ingredients you can whip up a batch in about 10 minutes.
I love a good chocolate dessert of any sort. I love thinking of, creating, eating, and rehashing desserts. This treat was known in my house growing up as “crunchy fudge.” It’s basically fudge with Rice Krispies in it (not the other way around…Rice Krispy treats with chocolate in it). It is totally addicting and I won’t be surprised if you need to “straighten the row” a few times. That’s a trick my mom used…”I just need to make sure this row is straight” meanwhile she’s eating a good eighth of the pan. Ha ha. Now that I’m a mom I use the same trick. We mothers have earned it, right?!

We don’t eat Rice Kristin’s. Can I use Cherrios instead?
You could try it! Not sure how it would turn out! Maybe rice chex would be better?
