This Valentine’s Day get your kids in the kitchen to whip up a special treat. These two ingredient allergen friendly Nestle Crunch® bites are easy to make and fun to eat!
I’m a sucker for just about anything chocolate. Especially when it comes to Valentine’s Day.
Allergies and chocolate do mesh.
Having kids with allergies and food sensitivities has actually increased my love of chocolate.
That may sound strange. But we pretty much avoid all fruity candy. My kids don’t eat anything with food coloring (can you say crazy pills?!). Plus my son is allergic to corn (corn syrup, cornstarch, etc.).
So when it comes to treats we stick to chocolate. Even with dairy allergies we all love the Enjoy Life chocolate chips. They are great plain or in a cookie. But they are even more fun when melted and turned into a delicious candy.
We’ve made chocolate covered toffee and salted honey chocolates (my personal favorite!).
A family favorite.
But hands down my kids love these Nestle Crunch® Bites the best. And they really couldn’t be any simpler to make.
Yes, they are that easy. Yes, they are grain, dairy, nut, soy, rice, egg and corn free.
The little bits of unsweetened coconut give the slightest crunch that tastes just like the crisp rice of Nestle Crunch® bars.
So much fun.
Let your kids choose some fun molds and create a special treat you can feel good about.
Package them up as gifts for friends or family. And don’t forget your spouse! Everyone will want some.
This Valentine’s Day skip the expensive boxed chocolates filled with artificial colors and flavors. Show your friends and family how much you love them with homemade Nestle Crunch® Bites.
Just two simple ingredients. No common allergens. Five minutes of hands on time. Happy Valentine’s Day!
