| 1 | Self-raising flour |
| 1 | Sugar |
| 1/2 | Butter (melted) |
| 150g | Marshmallows |
| 1 | Cream |
| 1/4 | Coconut (optional) |
Instructions:
-
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Weetabix, self-raising flour, and sugar. Stir until well mixed.
-
Add Melted Butter: Pour the melted butter into the dry ingredient mixture. Mix thoroughly until the butter is evenly incorporated, and the mixture has a crumbly texture.
-
Prepare Tray and Preheat Oven: Spray a slice tray with non-stick cooking spray. Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F) to ensure it’s ready for baking.
-
Press Mixture into Tray: Transfer the mixture into the prepared slice tray. Using the back of a spoon or spatula, press the mixture down firmly and evenly into the tray.
-
Bake: Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
-
Cool: Once baked, remove the tray from the oven and allow the marshmallow crunch to cool slightly before proceeding.
-
Prepare Marshmallow Topping: In a microwave-safe container, place the marshmallows. Microwave on medium heat for 1 minute, or until the marshmallows are melted and gooey. Stir quickly to ensure a smooth consistency.
-
Add Cream: Pour the cream into the melted marshmallows and mix thoroughly until well combined.
-
Top the Base: Pour the marshmallow and cream mixture evenly over the baked base, ensuring that it covers the entire surface.
-
Optional Toppings: While the topping is still setting, you have the option to sprinkle additional coconut, hundreds and thousands, or any other toppings of your choice for added flavor and decoration.
-
Allow to Set: Let the marshmallow crunch cool completely and allow the topping to set. This may take a couple of hours, depending on the temperature of your kitchen.
-
Cut and Serve: Once fully set, use a sharp knife to cut the marshmallow crunch into fingers or squares. Serve and enjoy the sweet, crunchy goodness!
Marshmallow Crunch is best enjoyed fresh but can also be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to several days. Whether you’re treating yourself or sharing with loved ones, this delightful dessert is sure to bring joy to every bite!
