Instructions  

  • Break up the chocolate into chunks and melt 1 cup of dark chocolate in a double boiler on medium heat. It takes around 3-4 minutes until silky in texture.
  • Stir in cashew butter until smooth and glossy.
  • Add puffed quinoa and mix well to create the toffee crisp texture.
  • Spoon into silicone molds and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
  • Melt the coating chocolates separately. The white and the dark. Melt the same way as the previous dark chocolate.
  • Dip each crisp ball in dark chocolate, drizzle white chocolate over part of it for a mummy look, and add one sugar eye while they are still wet.
  • Chill for another 30 minutes until set. Enjoy your Halloween treats. Keep covered or in an airtight container.

Notes & Suggestions

Tips
Puffed quinoa -The secret star ingredient! If you want a toasted flavor and extra crispiness, lightly toast in a dry skillet (off the heat) or oven for 5 minutes if you’d like — though it’s not essential., I didn't! You can substitute puffed quinoa with rice rrispies, puffed millet, or even crushed popcorn.•
Don’t skip the chill time — it gives the best toffee crisp crunch.
 Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge; they’ll harden slightly over time.
