Recently, I discovered a new (at least to me) chocolate bar at ALDI's. It's white chocolate coconut bar with crispy rice! You guys, I am obsessed! I've always been a white chocolate fan so I just had to try it! It is so good. But one look at the ingredients and I knew I had to make it at home, mini cups style!

I love chocolate cups because they only require a few ingredients and you can make so many different kinds. Dark chocolate with nuts, peanut butter and chocolate and of course this white chocolate coconut version. I think adding crispy rice to the mix is quite brilliant! Crunchy, sweet and addicting - these chocolate cups are perfect to make for holiday parties or pack and give to friends and family.

You can also add Christmas sprinkles on top of each cup (or any sprinkles that fit the party or season theme) for even more festive touch. Enjoy, friends!

    is there a substitute for coconut? Cant do peanuts either because of food allergy! Would pretzels work? or marshmellows mini?

    I’m wanting to make these for Christmas just wondering how long they will last before they start going soft so I can work out when to make them.

      Hi Janine, I made these and they do not “go soft”. They stay crunchy after they set up.

  12. Luann says

    Could the coconut crunch chocolate cups be made with dark or semi-sweet chocolate instead of the white? I'm not a fan of white chocolate...but love the dark.

    • Anna says

      Hi Luann! You can use any chocolate you like. I hope you love this recipe!

    • Margaret Hopkins says

      Hi Luann, I make these also, but I mix butterscotch chips in with my white or milk chocolate when I make them because it's a personal preference of my husband.
