Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup unsalted butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups chocolate flavored crispy rice cereal
1 cup milk chocolate chips
¾ cup almonds

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8 inch, square baking pan with heavy-duty foil, folding the foil over the edges of the pan.
  • Put butter in pan and melt in oven. Add brown sugar, corn syrup and vanilla; stir to mix.
  • Add cereal and stir with a spoon, then mix with fingers until thoroughly coated. Place waxed paper on top and press down gently but firmly.
  • Bake for 25 minutes until entire surface is bubbly. Sprinkle with chocolate chips and let stand for chips to soften.
  • Spread chips, then sprinkle with almonds, pressing gently into chocolate. Let cool until just warm, then refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight before cutting.
  • Using foil as a lifter, remove from pan and, without inverting (almond would peel off), peel off foil. Cut into bars. Store in refrigerator.
