Curls of crunch and shine—Bitter-sweet meets salty snap—Ramen reimagined

Ingredients

  • 2 bricks instant ramen noodles, broken into bite-sized pieces (seasoning packets discarded)
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips (60–70% cacao recommended)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
  • 1/4 cup crushed nuts (almonds, pistachios, or your favorite mix)
  • 1/4 cup toasted coconut flakes
  • 1/4 cup dried fruit bits (such as cranberries or cherries)
  • White chocolate, melted (for drizzling, optional)
  • Colorful sprinkles (optional, for fun)

Preparation

  1. Break ramen bricks into small clusters with your hands. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  2. In a heatproof bowl, melt dark chocolate chips with coconut oil in the microwave or over a double boiler until smooth and glossy.
  3. Dip or coat ramen clusters in melted chocolate, letting excess drip off. Place on prepared sheet.
  4. While chocolate is still wet, sprinkle with sea salt, crushed nuts, coconut flakes, dried fruit, sprinkles, and/or drizzle with white chocolate as desired.
  5. Refrigerate until chocolate is set and clusters are firm, about 20–30 minutes. Enjoy chilled or at room temperature.
