Ingredients
- 3 cups Vegan Chocolate (Chopped) or Vegan Chocolate Chips (525g)
- 2 cups Puffed Rice Cereal (70g)
Instructions
- Spray an 8x8 square dish with non-stick spray and line it with parchment paper so that there is an overhang on either side.
- Add the chocolate to a microwave safe bowl and microwave it in 30-second intervals bringing it out to stir every 30-seconds until melted.
- Add the puffed rice cereal and fold it into the melted chocolate.
- Pour out into the prepared 8x8 square dish and smooth down.
- Place into the fridge to set.
- When set remove it from the dish using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into 10 neat bars.
Notes
- Vegan chocolate. It's best to use a high quality good tasting vegan chocolate bar (roughly chopped). You can also use vegan chocolate chips but make sure you use a brand that you know will melt down and re-set well.
- Puffed rice cereal. Rice krispies may not be technically vegan in some countries because of the way their Vitamin D is sourced, but you can certainly use an alternative brand of puffed rice cereal. If you're gluten-free then make sure you use a gluten-free brand of puffed rice cereal.
- Storing and Freezing. These bars store very well in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. They are also freezer friendly for up to 3 months.
