Ingredients
Scale
- 125 ml sweetened condensed milk
- 50 g butter, chopped
- 360 g white chocolate, chopped and divided
- 80 g puffed rice cereal
- 65 g desiccated coconut
- 120 g red raspberry lollies, chopped
- 55 g pistachios, chopped
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil (for chocolate coating)
- Red raspberry lollies, very finely chopped (for decoration)
- Pistachios, very finely chopped (for decoration)
Instructions
- Grease a 12-hole muffin pan (80 ml capacity per cavity) and line the bases with small rounds of baking paper or fit with paper cases.
- In a small saucepan, add the sweetened condensed milk, butter, and 100 g of the chopped white chocolate. Stir over low heat for 5 minutes until melted and smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, combine puffed rice cereal, desiccated coconut, chopped raspberry lollies, and chopped pistachios. Use your fingertips to separate the lollies if necessary.
- Pour the cooled condensed milk mixture into the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until combined. Divide evenly among the muffin holes, pressing and smoothing the surface with the back of a spoon. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm.
- Place the remaining white chocolate and vegetable oil in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir until completely smooth, ensuring the bowl does not touch the water.
- Spoon the melted chocolate mixture over each crackle, gently tapping the pan to smooth and settle. Sprinkle with extra finely chopped raspberry lollies and pistachios.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is set. Serve chilled.
Notes
- Ensure to use good quality white chocolate for better flavor.
- Feel free to substitute pistachios with other nuts if desired.
- Keep the crackles refrigerated for best texture.
