We love chocolate in all its forms, colors and degrees of purity. That’s why we spend so much time experimenting with new recipes with chocolate. On this occasion, the paths have led us to collect puffed rice to work on our next recipe: chocolate rocks and cereals. To give them a Christmas touch we have presented them as rock chocolates. And it is that its appearance is very similar to a rock, but inside it has the right combination between the crunch of the puffed rice and the flavor of the dark chocolate that we have used.

Without further ado, we leave you in this article this step-by-step recipe for chocolate rocks with puffed rice. Let’s cook!
Ingredients to make Chocolate Rocks and Puffed Rice:
- 4 tablespoons of Cocoa powder 72% purity
- 300 milliliters of Milk (1¼ cups)
- 50 milliliters of Cream or milk cream
- 1 cup of Sugar (200 grams)
- 1 cup of liquid caramel
- 400 grams of puffed rice
How to make Chocolate Rocks and Puffed Rice:
- Before starting with the recipe for the rock chocolates, we first list the ingredients.
- We make the milk chocolate over low heat for 10 minutes. Do not stop stirring at any time so that it does not stick to you. We let it rest for another 5 minutes before continuing with the next steps.
- First add the cream. We remove and integrate. We continue with the sugarand when it is completely integrated we add the caramel. All this while stirring gently.
- Check our simple recipe with images in each step.
- Now we add the puffed rice flakes. In bulk, since you can include everything that the chocolate absorbs you. Stir well and let rest for another three minutes. During this time we take the opportunity to grease the parchment paper with a little oil so that the chocolates and cereals do not stick to us.
- With a spoon we are taking irregular amounts of rock. After all, that’s why they are rocks and not authentic, rounded chocolates and cereals. We deposit them on the parchment paper previously smeared with oil, and we take them to the refrigerator for at least 5 hours. My chocolate rocks and puffed rice needed 6 to have the final texture.
- We take out the chocolate rocks and puffed rice one by one, and place them on the tray. The touch of vanilla gives it a very interesting counterpoint. I hope you are encouraged to prepare this recipe for chocolates and cereals.
