Chocolate Rice Bubbles Squares.

CHOCOLATE RICE BUBBLE SQUARES

Mum used to make these regularly.  

Recently I made another recipe with rice bubbles as part of the ingredients.  I wondered what I could possibly make to use up some of them. Then I remembered and found mum's chocolate rice bubble squares.  It brought back many happy memories.
