Salted Popcorn and Spelt Rocky Road

This is a lovely teatime treat which kids and adults alike will love. It has very few ingredients and is super easy to pull together at the last minute. You can replace the puffed spelt with unsweetened puffed rice if you want to make it gluten free.

Method

Line a 20ch x 20cm tin with a double layer of baking parchment.

 

Melt the chocolate, butter and maple syrup in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.

 

In a large mixing bowl mix together the dry ingredients with the melted chocolate until everything is well coated. Pack into the tin pressing down firmly but without crushing the mixture. Cover with cling film and chill for an hour before cutting into squares.
