SOUTH AFRICAN CRUNCHIES

This is a popular after school or lunch bag treat for all South African kids. Most South African baking is done using self-rising flour - and I highly recommend using it! The kind we get here in Canada is Brodie's.

SOUTH AFRICAN CHOCOLATE CRUNCHIES

They are crunchy squares with a yummy chocolate topping. They are easy to make and popular with kids to make and eat. Once made they won't stay around for long. There is a version of these that does not use chocolate but they are not as popular. I have reduced the sugar to 1/2 a cup, if you would like them sweeter use 1 cup of sugar.
