200 g Quaker crunchy bites (plain granola)
220 g dark chocolate, chopped
100 ml fresh milk or unsweetened plant-based drink

See the step-by-step recipe by Madame Ginger in a video here!

  1. Prepare the chocolate logs. Place the Quaker crunchy bites in a bowl.
  2. In a stainless steel bowl, add thecouverture chocolate and milk (or plant-based drink) and melt them over a bain-marie.
  3. Stir gently until the couverture chocolate melts and forms a smooth mixture. Remove from heat and leave the bowl over the hot water for a while.
  4. Add the sugar, stir until dissolved, then remove from the bain-marie. Add cocoa, cognac, and peanut butter, and mix well until combined.
  5. Pour the chocolate mixture into the bowl with the Quaker crunchy bites and mix gently with a spatula to combine the ingredients into a single thick mixture.
  6. Transfer the final mixture onto baking paper, shape it into a cylinder, and roll tightly.
  7. Refrigerate the roll for 6 hours. To serve, unwrap the parchment and slice into pieces. You can wrap them in foil or serve them on a plate dusted with cocoa.
