My kids always ask for the store variety LCM rice bubble bars, but making them at home is really easy and so much more cost effective. Making one batch of these healthy chocolate rice bubble bars only takes minutes and makes 16 good sized portions. I made this in the thermomix, however I have included both regular and thermomix recipes below.
I have made a peanut butter version previously with marshmallow to make the mixture combine together, however this recipe is a healthier version and not so sticky, so needs to be kept cold to keep shape. My kids do take it in their lunch boxes for school with the icepack and a spoon for the occasion that it does fall apart (which for some reason they always hope it does cause they love the novelty of eating it with a spoon).
I used honey in this recipe, however you can use rice malt syrup instead, although the slice will not be as sweet.
