UK Spice Krispies

Unchained Kitchen,
at Chain Yard Urban Cidery,
2606 Agricola Street

These aren’t your auntie’s sticky, marshmallow-packed Rice Krispie squares. Kind of like souped-up caramel corn, but with a spicy kick, chef Lawry Deneau’s UK Spice Krispies are one of Chain Yard Urban Cidery and Unchained Kitchen’s classic bar snacks—designed for pairing with a cool, crisp cider. It’s the slow-burning, subtle warmth that sets this dish apart, and that same heat that’ll make them a perfect bite for a winter’s night.

Dry ingredients
2 cups Rice Krispies
¾ cup chopped raisins
2 cups toasted coconut
1 cup sunflower seeds

Glaze
1 cup brown sugar

¼ cup honey
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp baking soda
2 tbsp madras curry paste

Melt brown sugar and butter together in sauce pot. Add remaining glaze ingredients and stir.
