How to make sugar free chin chin with honey

No sugar chin chin is made with all or some of chin chin ingredients minus the sugar. When I thought of how to make good chin chin snack without sugar, the first thing that came to mind was salt and I 

dismissed it already. Then again… I went deeper and began to imagine using honey and my ‘mind’s taste buds’ could taste it already.

While still cooking in my head, I added evaporated milk and vanilla essence and what? The taste increased greatly. Then, all of a sudden, my body began to crave the taste of this chin chin and I couldn’t wait to rush home and give life to it. 

As I type, I’m still in my workout clothes because the making of the chin chin started in my head while doing some early morning jogging rounds.

HOW IT STARTED

As soon as I entered the house, it felt like going to take a shower might help me forget this  beautiful baby in my head waiting to be born. I went straight into the quiet kitchen as everyone was still asleep.
Started and when this yummy sugar-free chin chin started fryings, with the kitchen doors properly locked, they still perceived the awesome aroma in their sleep and started entering the kitchen one after the other. 

It’s holiday, a full house and I had to beg that they all go eat proper breakfast before touching this chin chin again ,as every round taken out of the pot is immediately rushed and with that kind of  chin chin love how do I get enough to arrange and snap good pictures for us? 

The fun of cutting chin chin with a pizza cutter, made them  take over the cutting of the remaining ones and we completed the frying together.
I tried my best to safeguard this little quantity left here.
 This Chin chin recipe is what they all have voted that we use for the Christmas and New year chin chin making. 
For them o, this is the best chin chin recipe yet, even though for me, all the chin chin recipes on the blog and every Nigerian chin chin recipe I tried, tasted good.
I love this snack, whether crunchy or not. My only wahala comes when the chin chin is too hard or too sweet. Aside that, chin chin is a great snack.
The ingredients used are few and easy to come by. Surprise your family this Christmas with this twist and they’ll love it and ask where you went to improve on your chin chin making.
