Nutty
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

We liked the taste of this, but the appearance and crumbliness left a little to be desired. The flavors are great, but I... can't rate it a five due to the difficulty in eating it and the fact that my granddaughter wouldn't even try it since she thought it looked "yucky." I did end up adding a little cream per another reviewer's suggestion and that helped the consistency of the chocolate mixture. Even with that, it was still difficult to mix in with the cereal. I too had a lot of little pieces which I will use to sprinkle on future desserts.Read more

This is a super after school snack. I made it for my Grandchildern and they just could not get enough. Of course any recipe... of Emeril that I make they just go wild over. What can I say he is just super.Read more

Outstanding, but!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Based on previous reviews, I decided to wait and see what specific techniques were used for this. Fully equipped with the... proper techniques, I ventured forward. The main problem that I encountered was that the "cereal" lost a lot of its crispiness im the process. A side problem was that there were quite a lot of small bits produced. The solutions: (1) I took the large bits and baked them in a 300 degree oven for about 20 minutes to crisp them up; and (2) I used the small bits for a cheese cake crust. All and all, a very positive and delicious experience!Read more

Deeeelicious and addicting :-)
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is a great snack, very easy AND, I had never tasted chocolate-hazelnut spread, now I'm hooked :-)...in fact, the jar was... empty before I made the snack and had to purchase another :-). I found it a little hard to mix the chocolate without breaking the cereal so next time I am going to try just 1/2 of everything. Thanks for the great recipe.Read more

Wow!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

What a delicious flavor! However, when I mixed mine together, the cereal got all smashed, so I pressed it into a greased 9x9... pan, froze it, then cut it up kinda like Rice Krispie treats.Read more
