This Chocolate Rice Crispy Bites recipe is perfect if you’re following a calorie-controlled diet and fits well with any one of the major diet plans such as Weight Watchers.

As a guide, an average man needs around 2,500kcal (10,500kJ) a day to maintain a healthy body weight. For an average woman, that figure is around 2,000kcal (8,400kJ) a day.

Step 1

Chop the funsize Mars Bars into pieces and place them into a microwaveable bowl with the reduced fat spread.

Step 2

Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, and microwave for another 30 seconds. Stir well – the mixture should be smooth.

Step 3

Add the Coco Pops to the chocolate mixture and stir thoroughly, making sure that all the Coco Pops are completely coated.

Step 5

I live in the USA. Can I sub a Milky Way instead?

Reply

    SharonThursday 4th June 2020

    Hi Michelle, I believe the bar known as Milky Way in the USA is the same as the bar known as a Mars Bar in the UK, so should be fine to substitute.It should have a caramel layer in it as this will help the Rice Crispy Bites to set. Hope this helps and enjoy making this recipe!
