Rice Krispie Egg Nests | Slimming World

Extra Easy Syn Value- 3 syns each

Healthy Extras- None

Easter is fast approaching, and I really wanted to try and come up with some low syn Easter treats.  One thing I always used to love was the mini egg easter nests.  As you can imagine, there is a lot of syns involved in the original! To make this low syn, I knew that I had to find some kind of alternative to melted chocolate. 

I did some research into healthy options, and came up with the idea of creating a kind of chocolate syrup to coat the rice Krispies. It worked well and the got consumed quickly at work!

I also used choc shot for extra chocolatey flavour. It's only half a syn per tsp, so split between all the cakes is nothing.

You will need-

24 mini eggs 

56g Rice Krispies  

1 tbsp of 100% pure cocoa powder

2 tsp choc shot 

2 tbsp of brown sugar 

4 tbsp of skimmed milk 

12 mini cake papers

First make the chocolate coating. Add the cocoa powder, choc shot and brown sugar to a saucepan.

Whisk the ingredients together and then heat on a medium setting. Keep whisking while it heats up and eventually thickens. It needs to resemble a caramel before it is ready. 

Add the Rice Krispies and mix with a wooden spoon until the Rice Krispies are all coated, make sure there's no rouge uncoated ones!

Spoon the mixture evenly into 12 mini cake cases in a muffin tin. Press the mixture down into each case. Top each cake with 2 mini eggs, or 1 for even less syns.

Place the muffin tin in the freezer for 1 hour to set.
