This no bake Mars Bar slice is so quick and easy with just 6 ingredients. Gooey, chewy caramel, chocolate and rice bubbles mixed together then covered in chocolate.
For best results, always weigh ingredients where a weight is provided
Equipment
medium saucepan
wooden spoon / metal spoon
large mixng bowl
9 inch square pan
Instructions
Line an 8 or 9 inch square baking tin with baking paper and set aside.
Roughly chop up the mars bars. Put about 50g (1.8oz) aside (or a good handful) and add the rest to a medium saucepan with the butter.
On the stovetop over low heat, stir almost constantly to melt and combine together, stirring with a wooden spoon. Stop when there are just a few small lumps left.
Remove from heat and add the vanilla and salt and stir to combine.
Place the rice bubbles in a large heatproof bowl and add the rest of the chopped mars bars pieces you set aside earlier. Separate them up so they don't all get stuck in one spot.
Pour over the melted butter and melted mars bar mixture and mix well with a spatula.
Tip the mixture into the tin and press down firmly with the back of a metal spoon or spatula all over. If cool enough you can use your hands. Try to get a fairly flat top, ready for the chocolate layer.
Place the milk chocolate and dark chocolate in separate microwave-safe bowls and melt in the microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring really well between each. This should only take 90 seconds. No longer or you risk burning it.
Pour the milk chocolate over the mars bar slice and level it out (I like using an offset spatula for this). Drizzle the dark chocolate over the top, then drag a skewer through it to marble the surface.
Let it set in the fridge for 3 hours before cutting into small pieces and serving.

Notes
Shrinkflation: I’ve used the total weight of mars bars in this recipe - due to shrinkflation, I can’t say just 5 or 6 mars bars. Shrinkflation is where a brand reduces the quantity or weight of a well-known item without changing the packaging or price. Just a few years ago, Mars Bars were 53g each; before that, they were 60g. Hence you need 260g of mars bars.
Mars Bar vs Milky Ways: If you’re in the US, use Milky Ways which are almost equivalent to Mars Bars outside of the US.
This recipe doubles well. Use a slice tin or 9x13 tin if doubling the recipe.
