Loving It Vegan

Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats

So who doesn’t love a good dose of rice krispie treats! I know they’re usually made with marshmallows, which quite honestly I’d be down for!

I’m not one of those people who’s all like snubbing their noses at marshmallows or anything, I’d be super keen for it! But there is not a trace of a vegan marshmallow that I have been able to find in these parts!

But no matter! What I bring to you today is just as good! Chocolate peanut butter rice krispie treats!

Peanut butter and golden syrup (or brown rice syrup as you prefer) are melted together to form a sticky delicious sauce that binds those little krispies together and then vegan chocolate is melted for the topping!

The result is a sweet and crunchy square of peanut butter rice krispie deliciousness that is made all the better for being topped with a thick layer of chocolate!

And if you’re not already completely sold on this, maybe the fact that it’s only 4-ingredients and only takes around 20 minutes to throw together will be the thing to catapult you into action and have you heading straight to the kitchen to make these right away!

And they are super kid friendly too! So if you have kiddies around, they will be super pleased.

My niece is rather an anomaly, she popped around (with my sister of course, I don’t think 6 year olds are generally popping around places all on their own), the other day and I had a batch of these on the go. I excitedly offered her one saying ‘these are great for kids!’ and she proceeded to swiftly turn me down! She doesn’t like chocolate. Well blow me over with a feather! I didn’t know it was possible to not like chocolate! But you live and learn!

I am pretty sure you will love these vegan chocolate peanut butter rice krispie squares (could I have made the name a bit longer? I think I could have!). They are:

Just 4-Ingredients
Super quick and easy
Crunchy
Peanut Buttery
Sweet
Covered in chocolate!

Keep them covered in the fridge where they will easily stay fresh for a few days. Though I seriously doubt they will last that long. These disappear quickly.

If you love coconut, then this vegan coconut cream pie is your dream pie! The crust contains dried coconut, the filling contains coconut milk and coconut sugar and shredded coconut, the topping is whipped coconut cream and the decoration is toasted coconut! And with all that coconut goodness going on, this is a truly deeelicious…

I was listening to this excellent Ted talk the other day about how (and why) dieting doesn’t work. And in this video she mentions the four things that are proven to most benefit our longevity. And if these four things are done then life expectancy is equally high across the spectrum of body weight. And…

So, in another post recently I was talking about how peanut butter just makes everything better. And really, when I look at these pancakes I just know that truer words were never spoken. What’s that saying? ‘It’s the best thing since sliced bread’. I think it should have rather been: ‘It’s the best thing since…

My mom made one of our ice creams (I think it was the vanilla) for her non-vegan partner. She doesn’t even have an ice cream machine so instead used a hand beater to whip it for ages and then froze it. And her partner reckons it’s the best tasting ice cream he’s ever had. And…

Whoever invented smoothies should get a medal. Really. Thanks dude/dudette. Smoothies are how you get to drink what tastes like the most delicious milkshake ever, and have it be perfectly acceptable, nay good, to have it for breakfast (and I just used the word ‘nay’ – I should get a medal!) And this blueberry banana…

What a whirlwind you guys! Moving internationally is not for the faint hearted! You know they say (I don’t know who ‘they’ are, but they do say it!) that moving is as stressful as a divorce. Well I don’t know about that but I do know Jaye and I have been super damn stressed! Right…

I love everything about cakes. I love making them, frosting them, decorating them and of course, eating them. But I mostly stick to very, very simple cake recipes. This is because, while I enjoy baking, and enjoy cooking, I am no chef or master baker! So the simpler the better. When I was contemplating making…

This vegan banoffee pie is no-bake, raw vegan, super easy and fun! This is what you make when you want to please EVERYONE, it’s gluten-free, refined sugar free and raw. All this and it’s super delicious too! In fact if you want to keep its extreme dietary friendliness to yourself you can do that too!…
