Chocolate Crunch Recipe

Chocolate Crunch Recipe

An easy to follow recipe for the school lunch classic: chocolate crunch. Sprinkled generously with granulated sugar - yum!

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 300g Plain Flour
  • 300g Granulated Sugar
  • 80g Cocoa Powder
  • 150g Butter (Vegan butter works great too!)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180C 
  2. Mix the flour, sugar and cocoa in a large mixing bowl
  3. Melt the butter until runny (either in microwave or in a pan)
  4. Pour the melted butter into the flour mixture and mix to a crumble
  5. Butter a deep-sided tin, then tip the crumble mixture into it 
  6. Use your hands or a spatula to press the crumble down to form a flat, dense cake
  7. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes
  8. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with more granulated sugar
  9. Allow to cool for 1 minute if you like them warm and soft, otherwise allow to fully cool for a 'crunch' 

Notes

If you'd like your chocolate crunch to be softer than this, add more butter - i'm not 100% sure how much, but you really can't go wrong with this recipe. Or, eat is when its really warm. I'd advise against putting the chocolate crunch in the fridge as it will go solid - leave in a sealed concealer at room temperature if you plan on eating these over a few days.
