I am a hunger monster at the moment. Is it boredom? Frustration? Madness induced by motherhood?! All three?!? Anyway, what ever it is I am obsessed with goodies. Today I wanted homemade biscuits (cookies, to my American pals) but I didn't have the right flour.
OK, I thought, flapjacks will do, I'll make them. Guess what? Hardly any porridge oats. Grrr.
So what did I make? Essentially, vegan rice krispie buns. Do our American friends have these? They are a birthday party must-have in Ireland. They are Rice Krispies mixed into melted chocolate, then left to set.
There has been a bar of vegan couverture chocolate in the press since Xmas. Mr Vegan got it as part of his Xmas box from someone. I don't think the someone realised it was posh cooking chocolate.
Anyway, out it came today and I inspected it closely: it's organic, vegan and has raisins and almonds in it. Mmmm. There is so much written on the wrapper it's hard to know what's what. Anyway, the gist is it's by Organica, as part of their Vegan Diets range, and it's made in Switzerland for a company in England. The web address is www.seriouslyorganic.co.uk and they do lots of lovely stuff.
So I present to you, Vegan Rice Krispie Buns:

and my mouth is watering looking at the picture of them. I'm on a fruit for breakie, salad for lunch buzz at the moment and right now I am positively weak and craving something yummy... nothing for it, I'm going to have to make some krispy buns when I get home ;-)
And I ate nearly all of them :) The others forgot about them once they were in the tin.
I am STILL on a goodie buzz. MAD. I'll put on a pile of weight and then I'll be sorry. I admire your fruit n salad routine!
