Mars Bar Slice
The Mars Bar Slice combines melted Mars bars and butter mixed with puffed rice cereal to form a chewy and crunchy base, topped with a smooth milk chocolate and vegetable oil glaze. After chilling until firm, it cuts into sweet, chocolate-rich bars that balance caramel, nougat, and crispy texture.
Ingredients
- 7 oz Mars bars , chopped (see note 1)
- ⅓ cup butter chopped, salted
- 3 cups puffed rice cereal (see note 2)
- 9 oz milk chocolate (see note 3)
- 1½ tablespoon vegetable oil
Instructions
- Line a 28x 18cm / 7" x 11" rectangle pan with baking/parchment paper.
- Combine the chopped Mars Bars and butter in a saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly until the mixture has melted. (see note 4)7 oz / 200 g Mars bars⅓ cup / 70 g salted butter

- Put the milk chocolate and vegetable oil in a microwavable bowl. Microwave at 50% power for 3 minutes, stirring every 20-30 seconds until the mixture completely melts.9 oz / 250 g milk chocolate1½ tbsp vegetable oil
- Pour the melted chocolate evenly over the slice.
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours until set solid.

Notes
- Mars Bars have nougat and caramel covered in smooth chocolate, called Milky Ways in the US.
- Rice Bubbles, Rice Krispies, or any puffed rice cereal can be used for the base.
- Use milk chocolate for a creamier topping rather than cooking chocolate.
- If the Mars bar and butter mixture separates while melting, remove from heat and stir well before mixing with cereal.
