Here’s an easy, nostalgic version of no-bake homemade crunch bars — like a healthier take on a classic Nestlé Crunch bar, but customizable.
🍫 No-Bake Homemade Crunch Bars
Ingredients
- 1½ cups chocolate chips (milk or dark)
- 1 cup crispy rice cereal (like Rice Krispies)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil (optional, for smoother melt)
- Pinch of salt
Optional add-ins
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1 tbsp peanut butter or almond butter
- Flaky sea salt for topping
Instructions
- Melt chocolate
Microwave in 20–30 second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Stir in coconut oil if using. - Mix
Gently fold in crispy rice cereal until evenly coated. - Press
Pour mixture into a parchment-lined loaf pan or small square pan. Press down firmly. - Chill
Refrigerate for 1–2 hours until fully set. - Slice & enjoy
Cut into bars or squares.
Storage
- Keep in the fridge up to 1 week
- Freeze for longer storage (they thaw quickly)
If you’d like, I can give you:
- A high-protein version
- A peanut butter crunch version
- A white chocolate version
- Or a healthy 3-ingredient version 🍫
