Pin Recipe
Ingredients
1
cup
natural almond butter
or other nut butter
3/4
cup
maple syrup
2
tbs
unsweetened cocoa powder
2
tsp
vanilla extract
pinch
of sea salt
pinch
of cinnamon
4-5
cups
crispy rice cereal
For topping
1/2
cup
semisweet chocolate chips or dark chocolate
2
teaspoons
coconut oil
1-2
tablespoons
unsweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
Place almond butter, maple syrup, cocoa, vanilla, sea salt, and cinnamon in a large saucepan.
Heat slowly over medium-low heat, stirring continuously until well blended into a glossy brown paste.
Remove from heat and slowly add crispy rice cereal while stirring until all cereal is well-coated.
Transfer rice cereal mixture into a lightly greased (I used coconut oil) 8"x8" baking dish and firmly press down. Set aside to cool.
Chocolate Topping
In a small saucepan over low heat, slowly melt chocolate and coconut oil, stirring frequently until smooth liquid.
Pour chocolate evenly over cooled cereal mixture and sprinkle shredded coconut on top.
Place pan in fridge to chill for an hour before cutting squares.
Notes
You can substitute peanut or another nut butter if you don't have almond butter.
