Homemade Chocolate Bar

We are only a month and a half with our gluten free diet and one thing we are definitely missing is chocolate. We live in Canada and have yet to find a chocolate bar that we can eat. We were excited to find that Smarties in the US were okay, but upon further investigation we learned that Smarties in the US are what we call Rockets in Canada and are not chocolate at all!  We also have nut allergies in our house which eliminates several gluten-free options.

Well I came across this recipe on pinterest (Thanks to Beaming Baker!!!!!!!!) and have to tell you it takes under a minute to prepare and is totally delicious!!!

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips ( I used milk chocolate chipits that are gluten free!)

3/4 cups brown rice krispies

2 teaspoons coconut oil

 

I put the chocolate chips and the coconut oil in the microwave for 20 seconds and stirred.

Then put in another 15 seconds and stirred until all the chocolate chips were melted.

Then fold in the rice krispies.

Using a spatula lay chocolate mixture on parchment paper in a dish or pan.

Smooth mixture out.

Place dish into freezer for 10 to 15 minutes.

Break pieces to keep in the fridge or freezer, if you don't eat it all at once!!!

I saw on one of her other posts that she made them in cupcake wrappers and they came out shaped like a peanut butter cup.

FYI  My daughter's favourite chocolate bar was Kit Kat and I am so excited to share that she thinks it tastes just like Kit Kat, I think it also reminds me of chocolate macaroons.

Enjoy!!!!

GERBS allergen friendly foods (ships to canada) has milk and gluten free chocolate chips also free of other crap. Enjoy Life Makes allergen friendly chocolate chips. Melt these in a double boiler and use candy molds, add what ever you wish for fillings, As you mentioned a bit extra coconut oil makes it pour easier. Check with LorAnn Oils for extracts suitable for chocolates, there are some crazy ideas there (I have a peanut allergy and they have a safe peanut free artificial peanut butter extract,...reseses?) Perhaps you can start making chocoates and selling them at a local farmers market? I started a bakery for gluten free baked goods and almond butter to help fund my gluten free diet along with doing chef work. I personally can not have sugar and order Crio Bru ground cocoa beans and mix it with a sweetener and just use it as a desert topping or a snack mix >.> stuff is addicting eating it by the handful.

Make sure that cereal (brown Rice Krispies) is gluten free.  The most popular version contains barley malt!  

The candy sounds yummy!  ?

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      Wheatwacked, are you speaking of the use of potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide as dough modifiers being controlling factor for what? Do you refer to celiac reactions to gluten or thyroid disease, kidney disease, GI cancers?

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide. Both linked to cancers. Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers. A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor. Sourdough...

      need help understanding testing result for Naked Nutrition Creatine please

      They don’t give a sample size (serving size is different from sample size) so it is hard to tell just what the result means. However, the way the result is presented does look like it is below the limit of what their test can measure, so that is good.

      Excess iodine supplements can cause significant health issues, primarily disrupting thyroid function. My daughter has issues with even small amounts of dietary iodine. While iodine is essential for thyroid hormone production, consistently consuming amounts far above the tolerable upper limit (1,100 mcg/day for adults) from high-dose supplements can trigger both hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, worsen autoimmune thyroid diseases like Hashimoto's, and lead to goiter. Other side effects include gastrointestinal distress. The risk is highest for individuals with pre-existing thyroid conditions, and while dietary iodine rarely reaches toxic levels, unsupervised high-dose supplementation is dangerous and should only be undertaken with medical guidance to avoid serious complications. It's best to check with your doctor before supplementing iodine.

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide.  Both linked to cancers.  Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers.  A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor.  Sourdough natural fermentation conditions the dough without chemicals. Iodine was used in the US as a dough modifier until the 1970s. Since then iodine intake in the US dropped 50%.  Iodine is essential for thyroid hormones.  Thyroid hormone use for hypothyroidism has doubled in the United States from 1997 to 2016.   Clinical Thyroidology® for the Public In the UK, incidently, prescriptions for the thyroid hormone levothyroxine have increased by more than 12 million in a decade.  The Royal Pharmaceutical Society's official journal Standard thyroid tests will not show insufficient iodine intake.  Iodine 24 Hour Urine Test measures iodine excretion over a full day to evaluate iodine status and thyroid health. 75 year old male.  I tried adding seaweed into my diet and did get improvement in healing, muscle tone, skin; but in was not enough and I could not sustain it in my diet at the level intake I needed.  So I supplement 600 mcg Liquid Iodine (RDA 150 to 1000 mcg) per day.  It has turbocharged my recovery from 63 years of undiagnosed celiac disease.  Improvement in healing a non-healing sebaceous cyst. brain fog, vision, hair, skin, nails. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis celiac disease experience exacerbation of the rash with iodine. The Wolff-Chaikoff Effect Crying Wolf?
