Try baking our Mars Bar cakes for a slice of nostalgia. Not only is this recipe delicious, but it’s also fun and simple to make, and a perfect activity for you and your children. The chewy, gooey cereal base is blended with melted Mars Bars and topped with milk chocolate and white chocolate swirls. Bliss.
<h3>Can I melt Mars Bars in the microwave?</h3>
Yes, you can melt a Mars Bar in the microwave. We’d recommend you do this on the lowest power setting though, to avoid spoiling the chocolate. Put the Mars Bars in your microwave on a low setting, and check it every 30 seconds until it is melted and smooth.
<h3>Can I melt a Mars Bar on a hob?</h3>
If you don’t have a microwave, you can melt your Mars Bar in a small saucepan on the hob. Chop the Mars Bar into smaller chunks to speed up the melting process. Melt your chocolate on low heat and to check it often.
<h3>How to make sure your Mars Bar cakes are soft</h3>
If you haven’t melted and mixed your Mars Bars, syrup and butter enough, this can cause your final bake to turn out too hard and clumpy. When melting these three ingredients together, you can use a whisk as they begin to melt to get the mixture nice and smooth.
<h3>Reasons to make our Mars Bar cakes:</h3>
⭐Easy recipe for kids to follow (with supervision!)
⭐Can be made ahead of time and kept in the fridge
⭐Oven-free recipe

<h3>How can I thicken my steak pie filling?</h3>
If your steak casserole mixture needs to thicken up before you add it to the pie dish, simply add a teaspoon of plain flour, stir into the steak mix, and see how the mixture looks. Add flour slowly, one teaspoon at a time, until your mixture starts to thicken up.
