A friend gave me some Pudding-flavoured KitKats
You are supposed to cook these in a toaster oven for a few minutes. They are supposed to brown and caramelize on top like a crème brulée. I was just going to eat it normally because *effort*, but I figured I should give it a try. Before cooking they look like white chocolate kitkats. They smelled super sweet and sugary.
I don’t have a toaster oven, and using a full sized oven for a tiny, snack-sized chocolate bar seemed wasteful. I decided to try using the microwave.
I kind of figured a microwave wouldn’t be a good idea, but gave it a go always. And as you can see, even on low intermittent settings, the sugary chocolate quickly became molten and burnt (a bit hard to tell since the plate itself is black).
Yummy!
You bet I still tried it. Surprisingly, the wafers inside were still crispy. You get the crispiness of the wafer along with the crunch of the 'caramelized' sugar, and the soft chocolate. It didn't taste too bad even with the burnt sugar. It was pretty sweet, so it's probably good that its only snack-sized. I have 1 more bar, so I may attempt to cook it in the oven next time I’m making something!
