Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
- 1 cup Rice cereal (puffed, unsweetened)
- 2 tablespoons Peanut butter powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt (optional)
Instructions
Line a mini muffin tin or a small baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone liners to prevent the candy from sticking.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well after each round, until completely melted and smooth.
Stir in the peanut butter powder, vanilla extract, and sea salt (if using). Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
Gently fold in the puffed rice cereal, making sure to coat all pieces evenly in the chocolate mixture.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared mini muffin tin or drop by small spoonfuls onto the parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Aim for even distribution to create 12 servings.
Place the tray in the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes, or until the candy is firm and set.
Once set, remove the candy from the tray and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Enjoy in moderation as a low-calorie treat!
