Raya Recipe : No Bake Chocolate Almond Cornflakes Cookies (Biskut Cornflakes Coklat Badam)

I totally nailed that translation. HAHAHA

Hey there! Raya is less than a week left. Since I took two days off from work, I decided hey, why not do some Raya cookies? After searching online with the help of Mr Google, I found a simple recipe that requires no baking whatsoever. Cool, 'coz I don't quite know how to operate mum's microwave cum oven cum some-other-weird-stuff. :D:D:D

Ingredients:

Cornflakes (No measurements here; I add in until the cornflakes are fully coated)
500 g Baking chocolate
250 g Almond strips
Honey to your preference
200 g White baking chocolate (for deco)

Steps:
  1. First, roast almonds until they become golden brown. Monitor them closely as you don't want them to burn. Leave to cool.
  2. Melt chocolate using double boiler method. Some prefer melting on the stove but I like to use the rice cooker as the heat is more manageable and the chocolate will not harden as I prepare other ingredients.
  3. Add some honey. I skipped this step because I'm not into sweet stuff.
  4. While waiting for the chocolate to melt, crush the cornflakes to smaller pieces. Make sure they're still coarse but fine enough to spoon into the papercups.
  5. Once the chocolate is melted, add in the crushed cornflakes and almonds. Fold until they are evenly coated.
  6. Line the paper cups and spoon some batter into them. 
  7. Lastly, decorate with white chocolate. Let them cool in room temperature.
Here's the end result:


The batch I made makes up 2 big jars plus one slightly smaller one, as shown below.

Voila~! Very simple, isn't it? Good luck!

P/S: I wanted to give credit to the blog I took the recipe from but somehow I couldn't find it. Not even in my history list. Has the blog being taken down? I'm not sure.
