What do you do with alpen light bars??

[lizzielipps]

Just bought some alpen light choc/fudge bars as ive seen some people melt them in the micro, anymore ideas for these?? And how long do you melt them for??

Melt mine for 15 seconds, soooo yummy. Also crumble it on top of a mixed fruit salad with mullerlight. Chocolate and Fudge are my fave. Summer Berries tastes a bit jammy for me.

Oooh Great tip......Melted Choc Fudge bars sounds yummy!!
I did try breaking them up in my Muller light but it went really hard.

I melt the Chocolate & fudge ones in the microwave for 20 seconds, top with sliced banana and then top with a scoop of low fat vanilla ice cream....YUM! You can top it with chopped nuts or melted nutella if you have enough syns left

wow- thanks for the tips everyone- I never thought outside the box- I was being pretty boring and just eating them as healthy extras- saving them for treats Sounds like something a bit more exciting to do with them!!!

I put them in the microwave at work for 30 seconds this morning as usual however it's a powerful microwave so melted them down loads, before I had a chance to put my yogurt on my phone rang, by the time I went back to it they had set so hard in the bowl I could literally turn the bowl upside down and it was stuck fast!

Was going to throw away but got a knife to prize it from the bottom of the bowl and it had gone like a biscuit... Mmm hard but nice!

some people use them as a base for cheesecake

I break mine into 4 then squish between 2 spoons and then pop them into a warm oven on some greaseproof paper. They go just like biscuits lovley with a cuppa x

exactly, melt, push in to a ramekin, as the base, then top with quark sweetened and some fruit - ie sliced strawberries, back in the fridge to set and voila! Cheesecake

the apple & sultana ones seem a bit softer, sort more oaty, and I roll them and bend them about in the wrapper, and use as a crunch topping to fruit, youghurt etc

 

[Princess_Stevie]

That sound's yummy! Definitely going to be giving it a try, thanks for posting x

Sorry just saw your question now. I have walls soft scoop light as it's only 3 syns per 100ml scoop so you could have a couple of scoops if you have enough syns left. xx

I just micro'd choc & fudge alpen light bar in a ramekin for 20 secs & used back of spoon to push down base, thinly sliced banana & dollop of low fat custard nom nom. I didn't heat cust or bananas though & biscuity base stays nice & warm

I usually just shove them in my gob and have a few minutes of bliss!

I am going to try this tonight though, I don't have a microwave so I haven't been able to try any of the others ideas yet.

My favourite so far is the orange mmm

Have been sick of the bars in their normal form & was hoping I could do something different with them!!
These tips are ace!

[Laura_carlburgess]

Love the tips.
I usually just eat them as they are but have a HEB left for today so was toying with the idea of using it as a pitta with my tea but think I have been swayed now

 

[dondons]

im going to try the cheesecake ones! sounds yummy!

 

[x_Ellie_x]

I'd never even thought of doing anything with them other than eating them straight from the packaging - thanks for the ideas ladies!
