Ingredients

  • ¾ cup butter
  • ¾ cup light brown soft sugar
  • 2 tablespoons golden syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt flakes
  • 5 cups puffed rice cereal
  • 1⁄3 cup vanilla icing (ready-made)
  • 12 chocolate-covered pretzels
  • 12 edible eye decorations
  • 6 red sugar-coated chocolate sweets

Preparation

  1. To start with this Christmas recipe, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Coat a 20 cm circular cake tin with butter and line it with parchment paper. 
  2. On medium heat, melt the butter, sugar, syrup, and salt together in a saucepan. Once the sugar is dissolved, whisk the ingredients together until well combined.
  3. Add the puffed rice cereal and mix it well with the sugar syrup until it is well coated.
  4. Pour the puffed rice cereal mixture into the prepared tin, and with the back of a spoon, press it into a flat layer. 
  5. Let the puffed rice cereal mixture bake for 15 minutes until golden and toasted. 
  6. Once done, press down the mixture again with the spoon while it is still warm. Allow the puffed rice cake to cool completely in the tin. 
  7. After the crispy puffed rice cake is cooled completely, remove it from the tin and cut it into six wedges. 
  8. Stick pretzels for antlers, edible eyes, and a red chocolate sweet for the nose to turn wedges into Rudolph. Use the vanilla icing to stick all of these.
  9. Leave the wedges in a cool place to set for 30 minutes before serving. 

After you have made this Christmas recipe, store the puffed rice cake in an airtight container, and it will last up to three days (if you can save them from the kids). Also, before adding the decorations, you can pour melted chocolate on the wedges to make it more Rudolph-like. Does this festive recipe pique your interest? Let us know in the comment section below!
