Rice Krisipe Squares

Adding oats for long lasting energy, nuts for protein and dried apricots for betacarotene gives these Rice Krispie squares a healthy twist for snack food. They are very easy for children to prepare and require no cooking.

Ingredients
100g white chocolate
75g unsalted butter
75g golden syrup
60g Rice Krispies
60g porridge oat
50g chopped dried apricots
30g pecans, finely chopped

Method:
Melt together the chocolate, butter and syrup. In a large bowl mix together the Rice Krispies, oats, dried apricots and pecans. Stir in the melted chocolate mixture.

Line a fairly shallow 20cm (8 in) square baking tin. Spoon the mixture into the tin and level the surface with a potato masher.

Place in the fridge to set and cut into squares before serving.
