No-Bake Chocolate Crunch Bars

by

Ingredients

  • 300 g (about 10 oz) milk chocolate (or half milk + half dark)
  • 200 g biscuits (digestive biscuits, graham crackers, or tea biscuits), roughly broken
  • 100 g peanuts (or any nuts you like)
  • 100 g butter
  • 3 tbsp golden syrup (or honey)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Optional topping (like in your image):

  • 150–200 g melted chocolate
  • Extra nuts or chocolate chips for texture

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prep the base

  • Line a square baking pan (8×8 inch / 20×20 cm) with parchment paper.
  • Break biscuits into chunks (not crumbs—you want texture).

2. Melt mixture

  • In a saucepan (low heat) or microwave:
    • Melt butter + chocolate + golden syrup together.
    • Stir until smooth and glossy.

3. Mix

  • Add vanilla + salt.
  • Fold in biscuits and nuts until everything is well coated.

4. Set the base

  • Press mixture firmly into the lined pan.
  • Smooth the top.

5. Add topping

  • Pour melted chocolate on top.
  • Sprinkle extra nuts or chips (that bumpy look in your photo comes from this).

6. Chill

  • Refrigerate for 2–3 hours (or until firm).

7. Cut

  • Remove and cut into squares like in your image.

💡 Tips

  • Use peanut butter (2–3 tbsp) in the melted mix for extra richness.
  • Swap peanuts with almonds, hazelnuts, or skip nuts entirely.
  • For a softer bite, add a splash of cream to the chocolate.
