Crunchy Cubes
I definitely have a sweet tooth though I normally prefer sweets to chocolate, however, I am always partial to a Crunchie when available. So this post is a homage to one of my favourite chocolate bars but loaded towards the honeycomb.
I made honeycomb over Christmas 2019, see the recipe here which is the basis of this recipe, however, to get the cubes I used some silicone large ice cube trays. Much easier to sort and also significantly easier to clean!
Step 1 - Make your Honeycomb
Follow the recipe linked above but pour into the ice cube trays
When pouring, try and get the levels as flat as you can but excess should easily break off and can be kept for sprinkling or decoration later
When cool, pop out and tidy up as best you can
Step 2 - Chocolate
Boil a pan of water and then reduce heat so it’s just steaming
Place a bowl over the top
Break up a couple of bars of your favourite cooking chocolate
Add in a knob of butter and a squeeze of golden syrup
The chocolate will slowly melt, stir occasionally until its all very saucy
Step 3 - Dunkin’
Over a plate or tray, put a trivet so that you have something for the cubes to not be in contact with something flat
Carefully dip and coat the cubes in the hot chocolate sauce. It can be a little tricky but if you hold from the bottom, dip then flip, it will drip down to cover the sides. You could leave the bottom uncovered.
Whilst cooling, you can sprinkle with some of the powder left over from the discarded bits of honeycomb for some extra sugar
